Do not drain the oil when the engine is cold. As the oil
cools, suspended waste particles settle on the
bottom of the oil pan. The waste particles are not
removed with the draining cold oil. Drain the
crankcase with the engine stopped. Drain the
crankcase with the oil warm. This draining method
allows the waste particles that are suspended in the
oil to be drained correctly.
Failure to follow this recommended procedure will
cause the waste particles to be recirculated through
the engine lubrication system with the new oil.
Drain the Engine Oil
After the engine has been run at the normal
operating temperature, stop the engine. Use one of
