Wear rubber gloves to protect skin from expo-
sure to the old oil and degreaser.
The oil should be changed with the engine warm. Park the vehi-
cle on a level surface, engage the parking brake and remove the
key. Place a drain pan under the engine. Wipe the top of the en-
gine clean with a cloth. Remove the oil dipstick and cap.
Fig. 27 Cleaning Top of Engine
Clean the area around the filter. Using an oil filter
wrench, strap wrench or other suitable filter wrench (A),
remove the oil filter (B) from the engine and allow the oil
to drain.
Fig. 28 Remove Oil Filter
The ‘O’-ring may remain on the engine (C) or on the fil-
ter (D). Inspect the filter, check to see if the ’O’ ring is
present or has been left on the engine surface. If the ’O’
ring has remained on the engine, remove it.
Fig. 29 Inspect Oil Filter
Be careful of hot oil when drained. It may be
hot enough to burn you severely.
Drain the oil by removing the drain plug found at the
rear of the engine base. Remove using a 3/4" (19mm)
wrench. At the first oil change,
small
metal chips and
lint may be found. This is normal, resulting from the
break-in period. Inspect the filter at every oil change.
The presence of large metal chips could indicate possi-
ble damage to the engine.
Fig. 30 Oil Drain Plug
Wipe the area around the drain plug mount with a lint-
free cloth and inspect the drain plug (G) for damage; re-
place if necessary. Replace the "O"-ring (F) with a new
one and tighten to 61 in. lbs. (7.0 Nm) torque.
Apply a thin film of engine oil to the oil filter ’O’-ring and
install the oil filter onto the engine until the seal contacts
mounting surface of the engine. Then turn the filter 2/3
to 3/4 of a rotation by HAND. Add slightly less than 1.4
quarts (1.3 liters); to allow for possible residual oil left in
engine; of high quality oil that meets or exceeds API SF,
SG, CC standards. Check the oil level on the dipstick.
The oil should be slightly below the ‘H’ to allow for ex-
pansion when the engine is hot. If necessary, continue
to add oil slowly and allow time for the oil to flow down
into the engine. Check the oil level on the dipstick.
DO
NOT overfill the engine with oil.
