When to Add Oil
If the oil is at or below the ADD mark, 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.
I NOTICE: I
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.
The engine oil fill cap is behind the engine oil dipstick
and engine fans.
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.
What Kind of Oil to Use
Oils recommended for your vehicle can be identified by
looking for the “Starburst” symbol. This symbol
indicates that the oil has been certified by the American
Petroleum Institute (APT).
Do not use any oil which
does not carry this Starburst symbol.
A
If you change your own oil,
be sure you
use oil that has
the Starburst symbol on the
front
of the oil container. If
you have your oil changed
for you, be sure
the oil put
into your engine
is
American Petroleum
Institute certified for
gasoline engines.
You should also use the proper viscosity oil for your
vehicle, as shown in the following chart:
