Checking Engine
Oil
Pull out the dipstick and clean
it
with a paper towel or
cloth, then push
it
back in all the way. Remove it again,
keeping the tip down, and check the level.
When
to
Add
Oil
If
the oil
is
at or below the
ADD
mark, then you’ll need to
add
some
oil. But you must use
the
right kind. This part
explains what kind of oil
to
use. For crankcase capacity,
see “Capacities and Specifications” in the Index.
I
NOTICE:
Don’t add
too
much
oil.
If
your engine has
so
much oil that the
oil
level gets above the
cross-hatched area that shows the proper
operating range, your engine could be damaged.
The engine oil fill cap is behind the engine oil dipstick
and engine fans.
Just fill it enough to
put
the
level
somewhere
in
the
proper operating range. Push the dipstick all the way
back in when you’re through.
