Engine Oil Level Check

The best tim e to check the engine oil
level is when the oil is warm, such as
during a fuel stop.
With the vehicle on level ground, stop
the engine and wait a few m inutes fo r
the oil to drain back to the oil pan.
Wipe the d ip stick clean before check­
ing.
Add oil, if needed, only to
the upper mark (max). Do
not overfill the engine.
For viscosity and capacity, see
" Fuels, Coolants, Lubricants, e tc ."
and last page.
For low engine oil level indicator lamp,
see page 64.
