5. Run the engine for more than 3 minutes, then checkfor oil leakage.
6. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
7. Connect the Honda Diagnostic System (HDS) to the data link connector (DLC) (see step 2 on page 11-3).
8. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
9. Make sure the HDS communicates with the vehicle and the engine control module (ECM)/powertrain
control module (PCM). If it does not communicate,
troubleshoot the DLC circuit (see page 11- 204).
10. Select GAUGES in the BODY ELECTRICAL menu with the HDS.
11. Select ADJUSTMENT in the GAUGES menu with the HDS.
12. Select SERVICE REMINDER in the ADJUSTMENT menu with the HDS.
13. Select RESET in the SERVICE REMINDER menu with the HDS.
14. Select RESETTING THE ENGINE OIL LIFE with the HDS.
NOTE: If you changed the automatic transmission
fluid (ATF) at the same time with the engine oil,
select RESETTING THE ENGINE OIL LIFE AND ATF
with the HDS instead. Oil filter wrench 07HAA-PJ70101
1. Remove the oil filter with the oil filter wrench.
2. Inspect the filter to make sure the rubber seal is not stuck to the oil filter seating surface of the engine.
3. Inspect the threads (A) and rubber seal (B) on the new filter. Clean the seat on the engine block, then
apply a light coat of new engine oil to the filter
rubber seal. Use only filters with a built-in bypass
system.
4. Install the oil filter by hand.
5. After the rubber seal seats, tighten the oil filter clockwise with the oil filter wrench.

6. If four numbers or marks (1 to 4 or to )
are printed around the outside of the filter, use the
following procedure to tighten the filter.
Spin the filter on until its seal lightly seats against the engine block, and note which number or
mark is at the bottom.
Tighten the filter by turning it clockwise three numbers or marks from the one you noted. For
example, if number 2 is at the bottom when the
seal is seated, tighten the filter until the number 1
comes around the bottom.

7. After installation, fill the engine with oil up to the specified level, run the engine for more than
3 minutes, then check for oil leakage. 1. Remove the oil filter (see page 8-11).
2. Remove the oil filter feed pipe.
3. Install the two 20 x 1.5 mm nuts (A) onto the new oil
filter feed pipe. Hold one nut with a wrench, then
use a second wrench to tighten the other nut.
4. Tighten the oil filter feed pipe to the block to 49 N·m (5.0 kgf·m, 36 lbf·ft), then remove the nuts
from the oil filter feed pipe.
5. Install the oil filter (see page 8-11).

1. Remove the oil jet, and inspect it as follows. Make sure that a 1.1 mm (0.04 in.) diameter drillwill go through the nozzle hole (A) (1.2 mm
(0.05 in.) diameter).
Insert the other end of a 1.1 mm (0.04 in.) drill into the oil intake (1.2 mm (0.05 in.) diameter).
Make sure the check ball (B) moves smoothly and
has a stroke of approximately 4.0 mm (0.16 in.).
Check the oil jet operation with an air nozzle. It should take at least 200 kPa (2.0 kgf/cm , 28 psi)
to unseat the check ball.
NOTE: Replace the oil jet assembly if the nozzle is
damaged or bent.
2. Carefully install the oil jet. The mounting torque is critical.

1. Remove the pump housing.
2. Check the inner-to-outer rotor radial clearance
between the inner rotor (A) and the outer rotor (B).
If the inner-to-outer rotor radial clearance exceeds
the service limit, replace the oil pump. 3. Check the pump housing-to-rotor axial clearance
between the rotor (A) and the pump housing (B). If
the pump housing-to-rotor axial clearance exceeds
the service limit, replace the oil pump.
