it requires 2.5. that is what my clymer manual calls for. however, if you take the oil filter out and clean it, it takes 3

Yea it takes 2.5 quarts and you should always put the right amount of oil in any engine. 10w30 yamalube is what I run in mine.

Yeah, you probably shouldn't just run 2 quarts unless you want to burn the engine up. It takes 2.5 without a filter change or 2.8 quarts with a filter change.
