seizure. Only raise engine speed after
running the engine for 60 seconds to
allow the oil to circulate fully.

the low oil pressure warning light will
illuminate. If this light stays on when
the engine is running, stop the engine
immediately and investigate the cause.
Running the engine with low oil
pressure will cause engine damage.
