Service manual-Primary Lube ?
 
In the service manual on page 1-15; #6 states Pour 38 oz through the clutch inspection cover opening. Part No. 99851-05 (quart).

My question is; do you use 38 oz or a quart? (32 oz)
This is for an 07 UC Thanks

if the manual says 38 then the answer is 38.

Duhh they buy book and then still ask?????
If the book which was written for and by Harley Davidson says 38 oz
then use 38oz.
32oz is 6 oz short, will it make a difference???? who knows!

Thanks jd, now looking at it again; I see that the manual is just stating the part number for "a quart"
Thanks.

The local dealer told my neighbor that 32oz was fine and that is what they usually do during a service if it is just a drain and fill.

My manual suggests an amount of lube but give instructions on checking the level.

After viewing FLHXn's signature picture, I nominate him for Road Warrior!

From reading the service manual for my 04 RK, and it says basically the same thing, I interpret that it means "Use 38 ounces of this fluid, which is part # xxxxxxx for quart bottles and part #xxxxxx for gallon bottles."

I think 38oz. is capacity. I don't think you can get all 38 oz. out just draining. If you had to remove the primary cover for any reason then you would need the full 38 oz.
