Checking
Engine
Oil
Pull out the dipstick and clean it with a paper towel or
iApBrh,
then
push
it
back in
all
the way. Remove
it
again,
keeping the tip down, and check the level.
When
to
Add
Oil
If
the
oil
is
at
or
below the
ADD
mark,
then you’ll need
to
add
some
oil.
But
you
must use the right
kind.
This
part explains what
kind
of
oil
to use.
For
crankcase
capacity, see “Capacities
and
Specifications” in the Index.
NOTICE:
Don’t
add
too
much oil.
If
your
engine
has
so
much oil that the
oil
level gets above the upper
mark that
shows
the proper operating range,
your
engine could be damaged.
Just fill
it
enough
to
put the level somewhere in
the
proper operating range. Push the dipstick
all
the
way
back in when you’re
through.
