OIL AND FILTER
INSPECTION
1. CHECK ENGINE OIL QUALITY
Check the oil for deterioration, entry of water, discoloring or thin-
ning.
If the quality is visibly poor, replace the oil.
Oil grade:
API grade SJ, Energy±Conserving or ILSAC multi-
grade engine oil. SAE 5W±30 is the best choice for
your vehicle, for good fuel economy, and good start-
ing in cold weather.
2. CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL
After warming up the engine and then 5 minutes after the en-
gine stop, oil level should be between ºLº and ºFº of the dipstick.
If low, check for leakage and add oil up to ºFº mark.
NOTICE:
Do not fill with engine oil above the ºFº mark.
When inserting the oil dipstick, insert the curved tip
of the dipstick facing the same direction as the curve
of the guide.
If the dipstick gets caught while inserting it, do not
force it in. Reconfirm the direction of the dipstick.
3. REMOVE OIL PRESSURE SWITCH AND INSTALL OIL
PRESSURE GAUGE
4. WARM UP ENGINE
Allow the engine to warm up to normal operating temperature.
5. CHECK OIL PRESSURE
Oil pressure:
At idle29 kPa (0.3 kgf/cm2, 4.3 psi) or more
At 3,000 rpm245 ± 490 kPa (2.5 ± 5.0 kgf/cm2, 36 ± 71 psi)
6. REMOVE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE AND REINSTALL
OIL PRESSURE SWITCH
(a) Remove the oil pressure gauge.
(b) Apply adhesive to 2 or 3 threads of the oil pressure switch.
Adhesive:
Part No. 08833±00080, THREE BOND 1344, LOCTITE
242 or equivalent
(c) Reinstall the oil pressure switch.
7. START ENGINE AND CHECK FOR OIL LEAKS

2. CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL
After warm up the engine and then 5 minutes after the engine
stop, oil level should be between the low level and full level
marks on the dipstick.
If low, check for leakage and add oil up to the full level mark.
NOTICE:
Do not fill with engine oil above the full level mark.
3. REMOVE OIL PRESSURE SWITCH, AND INSTALL
OIL PRESSURE GAUGE
(a) Using SST, remove the oil pressure switch.
