Install the engine oil fill cap, and
tighten it securely. Wait a few
minutes, and recheck the oil level.
Do not fill above the upper mark; you
could damage the engine.

Unscrew and remove the engine oil
fill cap on top of the valve cover.
Pour in the oil slowly and carefully so
you do not spill any. Clean up any
spills immediately. Spilled oil could
damage components in the engine
compartment.

Oil is a major contributor to your
engine’s performance and longevity.

it meets the American Petroleum
Institute’s latest requirements.

sure the API Certification Seal says
‘‘For Gasoline Engines.’’
