Pull out the dipstick and clean it with a paper towel or
cloth, then push it back in all the way. Remove it again,
keeping the tip down, and check the level.

When to Add Engine Oil

If the oil is at or below the cross-hatched area at the tip
of the dipstick, then you’ll need to add at least one
quart of oil. But you must use the right kind. This part
explains what kind of oil to use. For engine oil crankcase
capacity, see

Capacities and Specifications on

page 5-94.

Notice: Don’t add too much oil. If your engine has
so much oil that the oil level gets above the
cross-hatched area that shows the proper operating
range, your engine could be damaged.

The engine oil fill cap is
located toward the front of
the engine near the
engine oil dipstick handle.
See

Engine Compartment

Overview on page 5-12
for more information
on location.

Be sure to fill it enough to put the level somewhere in the
proper operating range in the cross-hatched area. Push
the dipstick all the way back in when you’re through.
