Engine Oil Change (to

include

fiHer)

Draining the Oil Sump

Remove the oil drain hose from its attachment

bracket and lower it into a container and allow the

oil

drain, or attach a pump

the end of the drain

hose and pump the old oil out. Make sure the oil

drain hose

properly secured

its holder after all

of the old oil has been drained.

Always observe the old oil as it is removed. A yel-

low/gray emulsion indicates the presence of water

the oil. Although this condition is rare, it does

require

prompt

attention

prevent serious

damage.

Call a competent mechanic should

water be present in the oil.

Sea water present in

the oil can be the result of a fault in the exhaust

system attached

the engine and/or a siphoning

through the sea water

cooling circuit into the ex-

haust, filling it up into the engine (refer

the in-

stallation illustrations on page

and 22).

Replacement of the Oil Filter

When removing the used oil filter, you may find it

helpful and cleaner

punch a hole in the upper

and lower portion of the old filter

drain the oil

from it into a container before removing

it.

This

helps

lessen spillage. A small style automotive

filter wrench should be helpful in removing the old

oil filter. Place some paper towels and a plastic

bag around the filter when unscrewing it

catch

any oil left

the filter. (Oil or any other fluid on the

engine reduces the engine's

cooling

ability.

Please keep your engine clean.)

Inspect the old oil

filter as it is removed

make sure that the rubber

sealing gasket came off with the old oil filter. If this

rubber

sealing gasket remains sealed against the

engine block, gently remove

it.

The replaceable

cartridge-type oil filter requires no cleaning inside,

so it may be properly disposed of.

When installing the new oil filter element, wipe the filter gasket's sealing surface on the engine block free of

oil and apply a thin coat of clean engine oil

the rubber gasket on the oil filter. Screw the filter onto the

threaded

oil

filter stub, and then tighten the filter firmly

hand.

NOTE: Generic filters are not recommended, as the material standards or diameters of im-

portant items on generic parts might be entirely different from genuine parts.

Immediately

after

oil filter change and oil fill, run the engine

make sure the oil pressure is normal and

that there are no oil leaks around the new oil filter.
