What to Do with Used Oil
Did you know that used engine oil contains certain
elements that may be unhealthy for your skin and could
even cause cancer? Don’t let used oil stay
on your skin
for very long. Clean your skin and nails with soap and
water, or a good hand cleaner. Wash or properly throw
away clothing or rags containing used engine oil. (See
the manufacturer’s warnings about the use and disposal
of oil products.)
Used oil can be a real threat
to the environment. If you
change your own oil, be sure
to drain all free-flowing oil
from the filter before disposal. Don’t ever dispose
of oil
by putting it in the trash, pouring it on the ground, into
sewers, or into streams
or bodies of water. Instead,
recycle it by taking it to a place that collects used
oil. If
you have a problem properly disposing
of your used oil,
ask your dealer, a service station or a local recycling
center for help.

To remove this air cleaner, open both clamps and push
the rear of the air cleaner toward the rear of the engine
compartment.
Insert a new air filter. Then replace the air cleaner
assembly, making certain the
PCV air tube is properly
seated in the left hand valve cover and the clamps are
securely fastened.
Refer
to the Maintenance Schedule to determine when to
replace the air filter.
A CAUTION:
F
Operating the engine with the air cleaner off can
cause you or others to be burned. The air cleaner
not only cleans the
air, it stops flame if the engine
backfires.
If it isn’t there, and the engine backfires,
you could be burned. Don’t drive with
it off, and
be careful working on the engine with the air
cleaner
off.
NOTICE:
If the air cleaner is off, a backfire can cause a
damaging engine fire. And, dirt can easily get
into your engine, which will damage it.
Always
have the air cleaner in place when you’re driving.
See “Scheduled Maintenance Services” in the Index.
