Which statement correctly lists the oil quantities for Actual and MFC?

Which statement correctly lists the oil quantities for Actual and MFC?

• A. Actual 3.0 QT, MFC 4.0 QT
• B. Actual 5.0 QT, MFC 6.0 QT
• C. Actual 4.0 QT, MFC 5.0 QT
• D. Actual 6.0 QT, MFC 7.0 QT

Answer: (C)

Knowing the exact oil quantity for different operating states is essential for proper engine lubrication. The DA20-C1 POH specifies two acceptable levels: when checked in the Actual condition, the oil quantity should be 4.0 quarts; when checked in the MFC condition, it should be 5.0 quarts. The higher level for the MFC state accounts for how oil volume changes with certain operating configurations and temperatures, ensuring the engine remains properly lubricated under those conditions. Use the dipstick procedure from the manual, add oil in small amounts, and recheck until you reach the specified value. Overfilling can cause foaming or leaks, while underfilling can lead to insufficient lubrication.
