ff
oit
level
gauge
The
oil
reservoir contains sufficient
oil
when
the
indicator
on
the
oil
level gauge
is
hori-
zontal, provided the
car is
level and the
oil
is
at
normal operating temperature. Never
allow
the oil
level
to drop so
low
that the indicator
is
in the
red
portron
of
the
dial:
under
un-
favorable conditions,
this
may result in
engine
damage.
During driving,
the
oil
level
gauge
is
inaccu-
rate
due
to
changes
in
engine speed
and
oil
temperature. Movements
of the
needle
while
driving are
of
no significance. If
the
oil
gauge
indicator
begins
to
drop as
engine
speed
increases
when
the car is
stationary
(engine
at
normal operating
temperature),
this
indi-
cates that the gauge
is
functioning
properly.
