Check the oil level as follows:
NOTE: Before checking the oil level on
this engine, it is necessary to warm-up
engine and to let it idle for 30 seconds
before shutting it off. Thereafter it is
necessary to wait 30 seconds. Then,
the oil can be checked. This is re-
quired to allow the oil to properly lev-
el in the different oil chambers. Oth-
erwise, you will have a false oil level
reading.

and block in position when bumper
rail is level. Install a garden hose
to the flushing connector. Refer to

CAUTION: Failure to flush exhaust
cooling system, when engine is out
of water, may severely damage en-
gine and/or exhaust system.

partment may be very hot. Direct
