The Allis Chalmers D270 tractor has a published engine oil capacity of 3.5 US quarts (3.31 litres). For tractors in the 2.0–2.9 L engine-size class, that is very low versus a peer average of 6.7 quarts. For a routine oil change, having 1 × 1-gal jug (~0.5 qt spare) on hand covers the published capacity.
