We are talking about the water pump here right . A stright 30 weight and it for that size pump about 14 ounces .4 liters look at the little window on the pump on level ground it should be at the half way point . If you want to buy offical pump oil the # is AW-4085-0016 This is MI-T-M spec but with this # you should be able to cross refferance to your pump make in case there is an issue with detegent or non detergent oils it could be an issue for the seals . But its basicaly 30 weight oil

What kind of pump oil

What you have is a generic pump from china more than likely. Its built along the line of a FAIP pump. They arent supposed to have the oil changed in them at all. Most are sealed pumps but may have a plastic plug in it. If you must replace the oil then I would suggest Pressure washer parts catalog quick links Pressure Washers High Pressure... and get this item 4.5 OZ. AR64545 OIL FOR AXIAL PUMPS. It is recommended for pumps built similarly but not for your specific pump. But it should work. Good luck. W

How much oil does the coleman powermate 2400psi with a honda engine hold

Use only the quantity specified in your pressure washer's manual for your pump. If you're not sure, measure how much oil you drained and replace with that amount. Most pumps have an oil window or sight glass on the side of the pump, with a mark or red dot indicating the proper level for the oil.
