My mechanic and I are rebuilding the nose gear strut on my Comanche. I want to put new 5606 fluid in it but can't find the capasity in the manual. Can someone tell me the corect amount.
Thanks

You service the strut by collapsing it completely, and then filling with fluid. After that, the N2 charge goes on top. That is pretty much standard for all the light aircraft struts that I have ever serviced.

I wasn't sure if there was a specific number of oz.
