Checking Engine Oil Level
The best time 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 minutes for
the oil to drain back to the oil pan.
Wipe the dipstick clean before check
ing.
Add oil, if needed, only
to the upper mark (max).
Do not overfill the
engine.
