Tools and Supplies Needed
• SAE 30 HD Oil
• Oil Filter Wrench
• 5/8" Wrench
• Suitable container for used oil

drains quicker and more completely.

Drain Plug and remove the engine oil Fill Cap.
2. Remove the Oil Drain Plug from the Oil Drain Elbow
with a 5/8" wrench (Figure 25). Allow the used oil to
drain completely, and then replace the Oil Drain Plug.
3. Replace the engine oil using SAE 30 HD oil (see
“Adding Engine Oil and Gasoline” in Chapter 3 for
instructions on adding oil).
4. Reattach the spark plug wire.
NOTE: Be sure to use environmentally safe disposal
procedures in the disposing of the used oil.
