Procedure

If performing biennial PMCS, go to

Item 77 (page 3-111).

Check oil level. Check more fre-

quently if there is evidence of leak-

age. Check before operating vehicle

when oil is cold.

To check oil level remove level plug.

If oil has been overfilled, allow ex-

cess oil to drain into a suitable con-

tainer. It is normal for a small

quantity of oil (approximately 2 or 3

tablespoons), trapped behind plug, to

run out when plug is removed.

Check level (magnetic) plug and oil

edge of level plug hole. Carefully in-

sert finger into plug hole and feel

for oil. If oil level is up, clean and

install level plug.
