OIL AND OIL FILTER REPLACEMENT

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

CAUTION:


  • Prolonged and repeated contact with engine oil will result in the removal of natural oils from the skin, leading to dryness, irritation and dermatitis. In addition, used engine oil contains potentially harmful contaminants which may cause skin cancer.

  • Precautions should be taken when replacing engine oil to minimize the risk of your skin making contact with used engine oil. Protective clothing and gloves that cannot be penetrated by oil should be worn. The skin should be washed with soap and water, or use waterless hand cleaner, to remove any used engine oil thoroughly. Do not use gasoline, thinners or solvents.

  • In order to protect the environment, used oil and used oil filters must be disposed of at designated disposal sites.

PROCEDURE


  1. REMOVE NO. 1 ENGINE UNDER COVER ASSEMBLY

  2. REMOVE NO. 2 ENGINE UNDER COVER (for 4WD and Pre-Runner)

  3. DRAIN ENGINE OIL

    CAUTION:

    To prevent burns, do not remove the oil pan drain plug while the engine is hot.


    1. Remove the oil filler cap sub-assembly.

    2. Remove the oil pan drain plug and gasket, and drain the oil into a container.

      Tech Tips

      Clean the crossmember after replacing the engine oil, as oil will make contact with it.

    3. Clean and install the oil pan drain plug and a new gasket.

      Tech Tips


      • Before removing the oil filter sub-assembly, place cloth where the oil may splash.

      • Use a container to catch the draining engine oil.

  5. INSTALL OIL FILTER SUB-ASSEMBLY


    1. Check and clean the oil filter sub-assembly installation surface.

    2. Apply clean engine oil to the gasket of a new oil filter sub-assembly.

      1. Depending on the work space available, choose from the following.

        If enough space is available, use a torque wrench to tighten the oil filter sub-assembly.

        Torque:
        17.2 N*m  { 175 kgf*cm, 13 ft.*lbf }

        If enough space is not available to use a torque wrench, tighten the oil filter sub-assembly a 3/4 turn by hand or use a common wrench.

  6. ADD ENGINE OIL


    1. Add new engine oil.
