outwithin10seconds,turnoff the
engine. There is a mechanical

take immediate action. If necessary, add oil to bring the
level back to the full mark on the
dipstick (see page ). Let the vehicle sit f or a minute.

level (see page ). An engine
very low on oil can lose pressure

maneuvers. Saf ely pull of f the road, and shut
