13. Tighten the oil lter by hand until tight. Do not use a band wrench or channel lock plier to tighten.
14. Lower the vehicle and remove the oor jack from under the rear of the vehicle.
15. Remove the dipstick and add engine oil into the dipstick port. Use a funnel or pour spout to direct the oil into the
dipstick port (Figure 22). With lter change, the engine requires 38 ounces (1.12 liters) of oil per change. Refer to
oil viscosity guidelines for selection of oil grade (Figure 23). Replace the dipstick.
16. Connect the battery cables, positive (+) cable rst, and tighten terminals to 144 in-lb (16 N·m). Coat terminals with
Battery Terminal Protector Spray (P/N 603 00 00-03).
17. Lower the cargo bed. See WARNING “For vehicles with cargo beds...” in General Warnings on page 9.
18. With the Forward/Reverse handle in the NEUTRAL position, start and run the engine for a few minutes. Observe

1 and repeat the appropriate step for either or both items to correct the problem.
19. Remove the dip stick and check the engine oil as a nal step. Replace the dip stick.
