stalled in your engine at the factory.
It is not necessary to change this
factory-installed oil prior to the
recommended normal change pe
riod. However, check the oil level
more frequently during the break
in period since higher oil consump
tion
is normal until the piston rings
become seated.

Checking Engine Oil Level
The engine oil should be main
tained at proper level. The best
time to check it
is as the last step in
a fuel stop. This will allow the oil
accumulation in the engine to drain
back in the crankcase. To check the
level, remove the oil gauge rod (dip
stick), wipe it clean and reinsert it
firmly for an accurate reading. The
oil gauge rod is marked "FULL"
and "ADD." The oil level should be
maintained in the safety margin,
neither going above the
"FULL"
line nor below the "ADD" line.
Reseat the gauge firmly after taking
the reading.
