When the engine oil is contaminated
or discolored, replace with the fresh
engine oil (see page 113 for
replacement interval and procedure).
4. Install the engine cover and lock it
securely.
Do not overfill the engine oil.
Check the engine oil after refilling.
Excessive engine oil as well as the
insufficient oil could cause damage
to the engine.
When you check the oil level with the dipstick, you might notice the engine oil
appears milky or the oil level has increased. If you notice either condition,
change the engine oil. See the following table for an explanation of these
conditions.
Operating Method
Running the engine below
3,000 rpm for more than 30%
of the time so the engine does
not warm up.
Frequent starting and stopping
without allowing the engine to
warm up.
PRE-OPERATION CHECKS
Result
• Water condenses in the
engine and mixes with the oil,
resulting in a milky
appearance.
• Unburned fuel mixes with the
oil, increasing the volume of
oil.
Effect
The engine oil deteriorates,
becomes less efficient as a
lubricant, and causes an
engine malfunction.
