Oil Level

Maintain the oil level at the center of the sight glass. Do not overfill.

1. Make sure the vehicle is on a level

surface.

2. Start the engine. Allow it to idle

for about 30 seconds, so it can be a litlle bit warm. Stop the engine.

3. View the oil level through the

sight glass, make sure it is on the center not in the top*.

4. Remove the fill plug. Add the

necessary oil.

*A rising oil level between checks in cool weather can ocur and could indicate

contaminants such as gas or moisture collecting in the crankcase. If

the oil level rises to the top of the sight glass, change the oil

immediately.

This is also the reason you wouldn't want to get the oil on the top of the sight glass.
