Inspect fuel lines, fuel filler cap and fuel tank for improper attach-
ment, leaks, cracks, damage, loose connections, chafing or deterio-
ration.
If necessary, repair or replace damaged parts.
Changing Air Cleaner FilterNLS0006G
VISCOUS PAPER TYPE
The viscous paper type filter does not need cleaning between replacement intervals. Refer to MA-7,
"PERIODIC MAINTENANCE" .
1. Remove air duct (inlet), air cleaner case and mass air flow sensor assembly. Refer to EM-177, "
AIR
CLEANER AND AIR DUCT" .
2. Remove air cleaner filter from air cleaner case.
Changing Engine OilNLS0006H
WARNING:

Be careful not to burn yourself, as engine oil may be hot.

Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oil may cause skin cancer; try to avoid direct
skin contact with used engine oil. If skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with soap or hand
cleaner as soon as possible.
1. Remove front engine undercover with power tool.
2. Warm up engine, put vehicle horizontally and check for engine oil leakage from engine components. Refer to LU-25, "
ENGINE OIL LEAKAGE" .
3. Stop engine and wait for 15 minutes.
4. Loosen oil filler cap, and then remove drain plug.
5. Drain engine oil.
6. Install drain plug with new washer. Refer to EM-187, "
OIL PAN
AND OIL STRAINER" .
CAUTION:
Be sure to clean drain plug and install with new washer.
7. Refill with new engine oil. Engine oil specification and viscosity:
Refer to MA-12, "

Balancing Wheels (Bonding Weight Type)NLS0006T
REMOVAL
Using releasing agent, remove double-faced adhesive tape from the road wheel.
CAUTION:

Be careful not to scratch the road wheel during removal.

After removing double-faced adhesive tape, wipe clean traces of releasing agent from the road
wheel.
WHEEL BALANCE ADJUSTMENT

If a tire balance machine has adhesion balance weight mode settings and drive-in weight mode setting,
select and adjust a drive-in weight mode suitable for road wheels.
1. Set road wheel on tire balance machine using the center hole as a guide. Start the tire balance machine.
2. When inner and outer unbalance values are shown on the tire balance machine indicator, multiply outer unbalance value by 5/3 to determine balance weight that should be used. Select the outer balance weight
with a value closest to the calculated value above and install it to the designated outer position of, or at the
designated angle in relation to the road wheel.
CAUTION:

Do not install the inner balance weight before installing the outer balance weight.

Before installing the balance weight, be sure to clean the mating surface of the road wheel. Oil grade and Viscosity:
Refer to MA-12, "

PONENTS" .
CAUTION:
Do not reuse gasket.
FILLING
1. Remove filler plug (1). Fill with new gear oil until oil level reaches
the specified level near filler plug mounting hole.
2. After refilling oil, check oil level. Set a gasket to filler plug (1), then install it to final drive assembly. Refer to RFD-18, "
COMPO-
NENTS" .
CAUTION:
Do not reuse gasket.
