INSPECTION
1. CHECK ENGINE OIL QUALITY
Check the oil for deterioration, entry of water, discoloring or thin-
ning.
If the quality is visibly poor, replace the oil.
Oil grade:
API grade SH Energy−Conserving II or SJ,
Energy−Conserving or ILSAC multigrade engine oil.
SAE 5W−30 is the bset choise for your vehicle, for
good fuel economy, and good starting in cold
weather.
2. CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL
The oil level should be between the ”L” and ”F” marks on the dip-
stick.
If low, check for leakage and add oil up to ”F” mark.
NOTICE:
Do not fill with engine oil above the ”F” mark.
When inserting the dipstick, insert the curved tip of
the dipstick facing the same direction as the curve of
the guide.
If the dipstick gets caught while inserting it, do not
force it in. Reconfirm the direction of the dipstick.

REPLACEMENT
CAUTION:
Prolonged and repeated contact with mineral oil will result
in the removal of natural fats from the skin, leading to dry-
ness, irritation and dermatitis.In addition, used engine oil
contains potentially harmful contaminants which may
cause skin cancer.
Adequate means of skin protection and washing facilities
should be provided.Care should be taken, therefore, when
changing engine oil, to minimize the frequency and length
of time your skin is exposed to used engine oil.
Protective clothing and gloves, that cannot be penetrated
by oil, should be worn. The skin should be thoroughly
washed with soap and water, or use water−less hand clean-
er, to remove any used engine oil. Do not use gasoline, thin-
ners, or solvents.In order to preserve the environment,
used oil and used oil filters must be disposed of only at
designated disposal sites.
1. DRAIN ENGINE OIL
(a) Remove the oil filler cap.
(b) Remove the oil dipstick.
(c) Remove the oil drain plug and gasket, and drain the oil
into a container.
2. REPLACE OIL FILTER
(a) Using SST, remove the oil filter (located on left side of the
cylinder block).
SST 09228−07501
(b) Clean the filter contact surface on the filter mounting.
(c) Apply clean engine oil to the gasket of a new oil filter.
(d) Lightly screw the oil filter into place, and tighten it until the
gasket contacts the seat.
(e) Using SST, tighten it an additional 3/4 turn.

INSPECTION
1. CHECK FLUID LEVEL
(a) Keep the vehicle level.
(b) With the engine stopped, check the fluid level in the oil
reservoir.
If necessary, add fluid.
Fluid: ATF DEXRON®II or III
HINT:
Check that the fluid level is within the HOT LEVEL range on the
reservoir cap dipstick. If the fluid is cold, check that it is within
the COLD LEVEL range.
(c) Start the engine and run it at idle.
(d) Turn the steering wheel from lock to lock several times to
boost fluid temperature.
Fluid temperature: 80°C (176°F)
(e) Check for foaming or emulsification.
If there is foaming or emulsification, bleed power steering sys-
tem.
(f) With the engine idling, measure the fluid level in the oil
reservoir.
(g) Stop the engine.
(h) Wait a few minutes and remeasure the fluid level in the
reservoir.
Maximum fluid level rise: 5 mm (0.20 in.)
If a problem is found, bleed power steering system.
(i) Check the fluid level.
