Warning
a) Cover the hose with a rag because fuel will
spray out when disconnecting.
b) Keep fire and open flame away from the fuel
area.
After disconnecting the fuel hoses, plug them to avoid
fuel leakage.

INSPECTION
ENGINE OIL
1. Be sure the vehicle is on level ground.
2. Warm up the engine to normal operating temper-
ature and stop it.
3. Wait for five minutes.
4. Remove the oil level gauge and check the oil lev-
el and condition.
5. Add or replace oil if necessary.
Note
The distance between the L and F marks on
the level gauge represents 1.0 liter (1.06 US
qt, 0.88 Imp qt).
OIL PRESSURE
1. Remove the oil pressure switch.
69G02A-006
76G02A-005
86U02X-006
2. Screw the SST into the pressure switch installa-
tion hole.
3. Warm up the engine to normal operating tem-
perature.
4. Run the engine at 3,000 rpm, and note the gauge
reading.
Oil pressure:
343—441 kPa
(3.5—4.5 kg/cm2, 50—64 psi)...DOHC 2g4 392 kPa
(3.0—4.0 kg/cm2, 43—57 psi)...SOHC
5. If the pressure is not as specified, check for the
cause, and repair if necessary.
(Refer to Troubleshooting Guide.)
ENGINE OIL
REPLACEMENT
1. Warm up the engine to the normal operating tem-
perature and stop it.
2. Remove the oil filler cap and the oil pan drain plug.
3. Drain the oil into a suitable container.
Warning
Be careful when draining, the oil is very hot.
