The Cummins 6BTA5.9 engine has an oil capacity of 16.4 liters (approximately 17.3 quarts).
It's important to mention that this oil capacity includes the oil in the pan, the filter, and any oil present in the galleries and cooler, if applicable, which may not be exactly equal to the amount of oil removed during an oil change.
When performing an oil change, it's crucial to refer to the engine's service manual for the exact oil capacity and specifications to ensure proper maintenance and operation of your Cummins engine.
