Additional Notes

  • The Holden FB manual transmission fluid capacity is 0.96 liter across all four body variants covered in the specifications, namely the Panel Van, Special, Standard, and Utility.
  • A 0.96 liter figure represents a service fill capacity, meaning the amount of fluid the transmission holds during normal operation rather than a full overhaul or dry-fill quantity.
  • The check interval is set at 1,600 km under normal use conditions, which reflects a relatively short inspection cycle consistent with maintenance practices common to vehicles of the early 1960s era.
  • The fluid change interval is specified at 16,000 km under normal use conditions, placing the drain-and-refill frequency at ten times the check interval.
  • The specifications apply uniformly to the 1960-1961 model years, with no variation in capacity or service intervals recorded between those two years.
  • No differences in manual transmission fluid capacity or service intervals exist between the Panel Van, Special, Standard, and Utility body styles, indicating a shared transmission specification across the FB range.
