OIL AND OIL FILTER REPLACEMENT

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

CAUTION:

Prolonged and repeated contact with engine oil will result in the loss 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.
Wear protective clothing and gloves. Avoid contact with used oil. If contact occurs, wash the area thoroughly with soap and waterless hand cleaner. Never use gasoline, thinners, or solvents to wash the skin.
In order to protect the environment, dispose of used oil and used oil filter sub-assemblies at designated disposal sites only.
To prevent burns, do not remove the oil pan drain plug and oil filter sub-assembly while the engine is hot.

PROCEDURE

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.
2. Remove the oil pan drain plug and gasket and drain the engine oil into a container.
  
  Note
  
  Collect the oil in an oil disposal container.
3. Clean and install the oil pan drain plug together with a new gasket.
  
  Torque:
  
  40 N*m { 408 kgf*cm, 30 ft.*lbf }
REMOVE OIL FILTER SUB-ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:

To prevent burns, do not remove the oil filter sub-assembly while the engine is hot.
1. When not using drain hose:
  1. Remove the drain pipe cap from the drain pipe.
  2. *a Drain Pipe
    
    While removing the oil filter sub-assembly with SST, collect the engine oil from the oil filter sub-assembly in a container.

  3. Install the drain pipe cap.
  4. Clean the oil catch plate.
    
    Tech Tips
    
    When using a drain hose, perform the following procedure.
  5. Using SST, remove the oil filter sub-assembly.
2. When using drain hose:
  1. Remove the drain pipe cap from the drain pipe.
  2. *a Drain Hose
    
    Connect a drain hose to the oil filter bracket.
    
    Tech Tips
    
    Drain hose inside diameter: 8 mm (0.315 in.)
    
    Drain hose length: Approximately 900 mm (2.95 ft.)
  3. Feed the drain hose down through the engine under cover, and put the drain oil container beneath the drain hose to collect the engine oil from the oil filter sub-assembly.
  4. Using SST, remove the oil filter sub-assembly.
    
    SST

  5. Remove the drain hose and install the drain pipe cap.
  6. Clean the oil catch plate.
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.
3. Lightly screw the oil filter sub-assembly into place by hand. Tighten it until the gasket contacts the seat.
4. 3/4 Turn
  
  Using SST, tighten the oil filter sub-assembly. Depending on the space available, choose from the following.
  
  SST
  
  09228-07501
  1. If enough space is available, use a torque wrench to tighten the oil filter sub-assembly.
    
    Torque:
    
    18 N*m { 184 kgf*cm, 13 ft.*lbf }
  2. If enough space is not available to use a torque wrench, tighten the oil filter sub-assembly 3/4 of a turn by hand or with a common wrench.

Note

Do not allow engine oil to adhere to the moving parts of the belt tensioner, as this may cause malfunctions.

If engine oil is on the location indicated by the arrow, replace the belt tensioner.

Install the oil filler cap.

INSPECT FOR OIL LEAK
1. Start the engine. Make sure that there are no oil leaks from the area that was worked on.
