Engine Oil and Filter Change
WARNING:
New and used engine oil can be hazardous.
Be sure to read “WARNING” in General Precaution in SEC-
TION 0A and observe what in written there.
Use engine oil of SE, SF, SG, SH or SJ grade.
Select the appropriate oil viscosity according to the left chart.
Before draining engine oil, check engine for oil leakage. If any evi-
dence of leakage is found, make sure to correct defective part be-
fore proceeding to following work.
1) Drain engine oil by removing drain plug.
2) After draining oil, wipe drain plug clean. Reinstall drain plug, and
tighten it securely as specified below.
Tightening Torque
(a): 35 N
.m (3.5 kg-m, 25.5 lb-ft)
3) Loosen oil filter by using oil filter wrench (Special tool).
Special Tool
(A): 09915-47330
4) Apply engine oil to new oil filter O-ring.
5) Screw new filter on oil filter stand by hand until filter O-ring con-
tacts mounting surface.
CAUTION:
To tighten oil filter properly, it is important to accurately
identify the position at which filter O-ring first contacts
mounting surface.
6) Tighten filter 3 / 4 turn from the point of contact with mounting sur-
face using an oil filter wrench.

7) Replenish oil until oil level is brought to FULL level mark on dip-
stick (oil pan and oil filter capacity). Filler inlet is at the top of cyl-
inder head cover.
8) Start engine and run it for three minutes. Stop it and wait another
5 minutes before checking oil level. Add oil, as necessary, to
bring oil level to FULL level mark on dipstick.
Engine Oil Capacity
NOTE:
Engine oil capacity is specified as left table.
However, note that amount of oil required when actually
changing oil may somewhat differ from data in left table de-
pending on various conditions (temperature, viscosity, etc.).
9) Check oil filter and drain plug for oil leakage.
ITEM 1-5
Engine Coolant Change
WARNING:
To help avoid danger of being burned, do not remove radia-
tor cap while engine and radiator are still hot. Scalding fluid
and steam can be blown out under pressure if cap is taken
off too soon.
CAUTION:
When changing engine coolant, use mixture of 50% water
and 50% ethylene-glycol base coolant (Anti-Freeze/Anti-
corrosion coolant) for the market where ambient tempera-
ture falls lower than –16C (3F) in winter and mixture of
70% water and 30% ethylene-glycol base coolant for the
market where ambient temperature doesn’t fall lower than
–16C (3F).
Even in a market where no freezing temperature is antici-
pated, mixture of 70% water and 30% ethylene-glycol base
coolant should be used for the purpose of corrosion protec-
tion and lubrication.
Refer to SECTION 6B for COOLANT CAPACITY.

MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 0B-21
[Parking brake]
Check that lever has proper travel.
Check to ensure that parking brake is fully effective
when the vehicle is stopped on the safe slope and
brake lever is pulled all the way.
Steering

Check to ensure that steering wheel is free from in-
stability, or abnormally heavy feeling.

Check that the vehicle does not wander or pull to
one side.
Engine

Check that engine responds readily at all speeds.

Check that engine is free from abnormal noise and
abnormal vibration.
Body, Wheels and Power Transmitting System
Check that body, wheels and power transmitting sys-
tem are free from abnormal noise and abnormal
vibration or any other abnormal condition.
Meters and Gauge
Check that speedometer, odometer, fuel meter, tem-
perature gauge, etc. are operating accurately.
Lights
Check that all lights operate properly.
Windshield Defroster
Periodically check that air comes out from defroster
outlet when operating heater or air conditioning.
Set fan switch lever to “HI” position and mode lever to
defroster position for this check. WARNING:
With vehicle parked on a fairly steep slope,
make sure nothing is in the way downhill to
avoid any personal injury or property damage.
Be prepared to apply regular brake quickly
even if vehicle should start to move.
