CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL
Do not overfill engine. Too much oil
may cause engine to smoke o r
spark plug fouling.
When adding oil between oil changes, do not mix
brands and viscosity grades of oil. Both the oil dip-
stick and fill cap must be in place before operating the engine.
Failure to install the dipstick and fill cap will result in oil becoming
contaminated and/or oil being discharged into the engine com-
partment.
The oil should be checked with the engine warm. The vehicle must be
on a level surface with the park brake engaged. Allow adequate time
for oil to drain into the crankcase before checking.
Remove the dipstick and wipe off the entire area indicated with a lint
free cloth (Ref Fig. 25 on page 3-29).
Insert the dipstick fully into the dipstick hole and remove. Examine the
level of oil on the dipstick.
The engine can be operated safely as long as oil is within the safe
operating range as indicated on the dipstick. Do not operate vehicle if
oil level is below the safe area indicated on the dipstick (Ref Fig.
26 on page 3-29).
Oil should be added to bring the level into the safe operating range. Do
not overfill. Check that the oil fill cap and dipstick are firmly in place.
