specifications for reference only. Always use
the dipstick to determine when the proper
amount of oil is in the engine.
8. Start the engine. Check for leakage around
the drain plug and oil filter. Correct as re-
quired.9. Turn the engine off and wait more than 10
minutes. Check the oil level with the dipstick.
