3. Reinstall the drain bolt with a new washer (B).

4. Refill with the recommended oil Specifications.









5. Run the engine for more than 3 minutes, then check for oil leakage.

6. If the maintenance minder required engine oil replacement, reset the maintenance minder Description and Operation, and this procedure is complete. If the maintenance minder did not require engine oil replacement, go to step 7.
