What to Do with Used Oil
A
Used engine oil contains
things that have caused skin
cancer in laboratory animals. Don’t
let used oil stay on your skin for
very long. Clean your
skin and
nails with soap
and water, or a
good hand cleaner. Wash or
properly throw away clothing or
rags containing used engine oil.

Used oil can be a real threat to the
environment.
If you change your own oil, be sure to
drain
all free-flowing oil from the filter
before disposal.
Don’t ever dispose of oil by pouring it
on the ground, into sewers, or into
streams or bodies of water. Instead,
recycle it by taking it to a place that
collects used
oil. If you have a problem
properly disposing
of your used oil, ask
your dealer, a service station or a local
recycling center for help.
Air Cleaner
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to
determine when to replace the air filter.
See the
Index under Scheduled
Maintenance Sewices
.
CAUTION
A
Operating the engine with the
air cleaner off can cause you
or others to be burned. The air
cleaner not only cleans the air, it
stops flame if the engine backfires.
If it isn’t there,
and the engine
backfires, you could be burned.
Don’t drive with
it off, and be
careful working on the engine
with
the air cleaner off.
