location if an optional oil pan is used..
Drain the engine oil as follows:
1. Make sure the engine is level.
2. Start the engine and bring it up to operating
temperature.
3. Stop the engine.
4. Remove one of the oil filler caps (Figure 5-1,
(1)) to vent the engine crankcase and allow the
engine oil to drain more easily.
5. Position a container under the engine to collect
waste oil.
Figure 5-1
6. Remove the oil drain plug (Figure 5-2, (1)) from
the engine oil pan. Allow oil to drain.
7. After all oil has been drained from the engine,
reinstall the oil drain plug (Figure 5-2, (1)) and
tighten to 139.8 - 47.0 ft·lb (53.9 - 63.7 N·m; 5.
5 - 6.5 kgf·m).

counterclockwise (Figure 5-2, (3)) using a filter

engine oil. Install the new engine oil filter
manually by turning it clockwise (Figure 5-2,
(4)) until it contacts the mounting surface.
Tighten to 14 - 17 ft·lb (19.6 - 23.5 N·m; 2.0 -
