Fluid capacity on 1997 Pathfinder w/ manual trans?

[ntwrkguy1]

I've done a couple of searches here, and even consulted the owner's manual on my 1997 Pathfinder, but I can't find the capacity for the manual transmission.

 

I'm getting ready to order some Amsoil GL-4, and need to know! I was thinking that the capacity for the 5-speeds were in the ballpark of 3 quarts.

 

Thanks in advance,

4WD is 5.1L (5.3 quarts), 2WD is 2.4L (2.6 quarts).

Thanks 88! It's a 4wd, so I guess I'll have to order 6 quarts of Amsoil.

 

Kind of a dumb question.....why is the capacity of the 4wd transmission that much higher than the 2wd?
