Engine Oil
Inspection
1.Park the vehicle on level ground, and turn off theengine. Allow the oil a few minutes to drain backinto the oil pan so the dipstick will show the actuallevel.
Make certain that the oil level indicated on the dip_stick is between the upper and lower marks.
lf the level has dropped close to the lower mark.add oil until it reaches the upper mark.
CAUTION: lmert thc dipstick car€fully to avoid b€nd_ing it.

NOTE: Under normal conditions, the oil filter should be
replaced at every other oil change Under severe condi-

The numbers in the middle of the API Service label tell
you the oil's SAE viscosity or weight Select the oil for
vour car according to this chart:
30 20 -10 010 20 30 4OoC
An oil with a viscosity of 5W - 30 is preferred for
improved tuel economy and year-round protection in the
car. You may use a 10W - 30 oil if the climate in your area
is limited to the temperature range shown on the chart'

Oil Filter
Replacement
After the engine has been run, the exhaust pipe willbe hot; be careful when working around ihe exhaustpipe.
Be careful when loosening the drain bolt whils theengine is hot. Burns can resuh because the oil tem-peratu16 is very high.
Remove the oil filter with the oil filter wrencn.
Inspect the threads and rubber seal on the new filter.Wipe off the seat on the engine block, then apply alight coat of oil to the new filter,s rubber seal.
NOTE: Use onty fitters with a built-in bypass sys,tem.
Apply oil to rubber sealbefore installing.
