It would be, most of the time. I have seen some manuals where the oil filter capacity is in addition to the sump capacity.

Tom, we have the same experience 4-4.5 quarts max oil change. Ours is a universal 35 and it’s on the same angle. Considering we only use a half tank of diesel a year I can live with a short oil change. Len MitchellS/V Crazy Legs1989 C&C 37+Midland On.

I can't recall exactly but if you asked me how much oil I buy in preps for an oil change I would have said 6 qts without even thinking about it. I use a hand vacuum pump but can't recall it's capacity. As I recall it was the larger of the 2 Moeller models at the time when I bought it. The suction hoses have a metal rod inside which allows you to pre-bend the tube to better suck hard to reach area.

Stus-List 3HM35F oil capacity puzzle
Every time I change oil on Alera I check the engine spec for the Yanmar 3HM35F that calls for 5.7 quarts. I have never been able to get more than 4 quarts out or in. I use an electric pump extractor via the dip stick hole. I understand that the angle of the engine on my 37+ results in the oil laying at the aft end of the pan and try to make sure the tube gats all the way back there. Anyone else been able to replace over 4 quarts!
