Filling the Oil Sump
Add fresh oil through the oil filler cap on the valve
cover (refer
to
the photographs on pages 5 and 6
for
the location
of
the oil filler
cap
and lube oil
dipstick). After
refilling the oil, run the engine for a
few moments while checking the engine's oil pres-
sure. Ensure there
is
no
leakage around the new
oil filter
or
from the oil drain system, and then stop
the engine. Then check the quantity
of
oil wtth the
lube oil dipstick. Fill to, but not over, the high mark
on the dipstick, should the engine require additlon-
aloil.
NOTE: Immediately after an oil filter change
and oil fill, run the engine
to
ensure that the
oil pressure is normal and that there are
no
oil leaks around the new oil filter. Check the
oil pressure
by
observing the oil pressure
gauge in your instrument panel.
