- If the oil level is below or near the MIN mark, add engine oil. (See ENGINE OIL REPLACEMENT .)
- If the oil level is above the MAX mark, penetration of fuel into the engine oil can be considered. Replace the engine oil. (See ENGINE OIL REPLACEMENT .)
- Insert the dipstick completely until it attaches to the cylinder head cover.
