Engine Oil

Checking the Engine Oil Level

With the engine running, the crankshaft journals or rod journals may strike and break the dipstick, resulting in damage to
internal engine components. Stop the engine completely before removing or inserting the dipstick.
1. Stop the engine and allow five minutes for the oil to drain into the pan.
2. Remove the dipstick, wipe it clean, and install it into the dipstick tube. Verify that the dipstick is completely inserted into the
tube.
3. Remove the dipstick and observe the oil level. The oil level must be between the marks on the dipstick. If necessary, add
oil.
