SAE 5W - 30 preferred
You can also use an oil that bears the

3. Reinstall the drain bolt with a new washer. and rbfill
the engine with the recommended oil.
NOTE: Under normal conditions, the oil filter should be
replaced at every other oil change Under severe condi-
tions, the oilfilter should be replaced at each oil change'
The numbers in the middle of the API Service label tell
you the oil's SAE viscosity or weight Select the oil for
vour car according to this chart:
30 20 -10 010 20 30 4OoC
An oil with a viscosity of 5W - 30 is preferred for
improved tuel economy and year-round protection in the
car. You may use a 10W - 30 oil if the climate in your area
is limited to the temperature range shown on the chart'

Oil Filter
Replacement
After the engine has been run, the exhaust pipe willbe hot; be careful when working around ihe exhaustpipe.
Be careful when loosening the drain bolt whils theengine is hot. Burns can resuh because the oil tem-peratu16 is very high.
Remove the oil filter with the oil filter wrencn.
Inspect the threads and rubber seal on the new filter.Wipe off the seat on the engine block, then apply alight coat of oil to the new filter,s rubber seal.
NOTE: Use onty fitters with a built-in bypass sys,tem.
Apply oil to rubber sealbefore installing.

Install the oil filter by hand.
After the rubber seal seats, tighten the oil filter clock_wise with the oil filter wrench.

PUMP HOUSING
17. Reassemble the oil pump, applying thread lock tothe pump housing screws.
18. Check that the oil pump turns freely.
19. Apply a light coat of oilto the seal lip.
20. Install the two dowel pins and new O-ring on the oilpump.
21. Apply liquid gasket to the cylinder block mating sur_face of the oil pump.
NOTE:
. Use liquid gasket, Part No.08718 - oOOj or 08718- 0003.. Check that the mating surfaces are clean and drybefore applying liquid gaskel. Apply liquid gasket evenly, in a narrow bead cen-tered on the mating surface.o To prevent leakage of oil, apply liquid gasket tothe inner threads of the bolt holes.. Do not install the parts if five mtnures or morehave elapsed since applying liquid gasket.Instead. reapply liquid gasket after removing theold residue.
. After assembly, wait at least 30 minutes beforefilling the engine with oil.
