When to Add Engine Oil
If the oil is below the MIN (minimum) line, you will need
to add at least one quart/liter of oil. But you must use
the right kind. This section explains what kind of oil
to use. For engine oil crankcase capacity, see
Capacities and Specications on page 5-99.
Notice:Do not add too much oil. If your engine has
so much oil that the oil level gets above the upper
mark that shows the proper operating range,
your engine could be damaged.SeeEngine Compartment

engine oil ll cap.
Be sure to add enough oil to put the level somewhere in
the proper operating range. Push the dipstick all the
way back in when you are through.
