Patient: '86 vanagon

Okay, I've searched high and low into the archives and
have found nothing to help me find out what the engine
oil capacity is for my '86 (built in 11/85) vanagon.
It did not come with a manual to refer to for
anything.
I'd also like to know what weight to use in the winter
in the New England area.  I intend to fill it with the
a cheaper brand and run it a few miles then drain it
and refill it with the good stuff for winter.

I'm also having trouble locating a nice beefy ground
strap for the transmission to chassis connection.  The
one that's on there now is questionable.  I went to
several FLAPs and have had no luck locating a short
2 or 1 gauge cable with the two flat ends on them.  So
where do you folks get yours?

Thanks again and have a happy T.G.!!!
