Additional Notes

  • The Maserati Indy AM116 4200 covers model years 1969-1974, while the larger-displacement AM116/47 4700 variant spans 1970-1974, meaning the two engine configurations share an overlapping but not identical production window.
  • Both the 4200 and 4700 variants carry a power steering fluid capacity of 2 liters, a figure that reflects the full system volume including the reservoir, pump circuit, and hydraulic lines.
  • The steering box on both variants holds a notably smaller 0.2 liter capacity, which is consistent with a separate gear housing that retains its own lubricant independently of the main power steering circuit.
  • The distinction between the 2-liter power steering system and the 0.2-liter steering box means two separate fluid service points exist on each variant, each with its own fill volume to observe during service.
  • Under normal use conditions, both the power steering system and the steering box share a check interval of 5,000 km across all listed configurations, indicating a unified inspection schedule for the entire steering assembly.
  • The fluid change interval for both the power steering system and the steering box is set at 20,000 km under normal use conditions, applying equally to the 4200 and 4700 variants throughout their respective production years.
