When
to
Add
Oil
If
the oil
is
at
or below the
ADD
line. then you'll need
to add at least one quart of oil. But you must use the
right kind. This part explains what kind
of
oil to use. For
crankcase capacity, see "Capacities and Specifications"
in the Index.
NOTICE:
Don't add
too
much oil.
If
your engine has
so
much
oil
that the
oil
level gets above the
cross-hatched area that shows the proper
operating range, your engine could be damaged.
Be sure to
fill
it
enough to
put
the level somewhere
in
the proper operating range. Push the dipstick all the way
back
in
when you're through.

Kind
of
Oil

own
oil. be sure

use
oil
that has
the Starburst symbol

oil container.
