Checking Engine Oil

It is a good idea to check the engine oil every time
you get fuel. In order to get an accurate reading,
the oil must be warm and the vehicle must be
on level ground.

The engine oil dipstick handle is a yellow loop.
See Engine Compartment Overview on page 322
for the location of the engine oil dipstick.

1. Turn off the engine and give the oil several

minutes to drain back into the oil pan. If you
do not do this, the oil dipstick might not
show the actual level.

2. Pull out the dipstick and clean it with a paper

towel or cloth, then push it back in all the
way. Remove it again, keeping the tip down,
and check the level.
