Caution: Do not crank the starting motor for periods
longer than 30 seconds. Excessive heat will damage the
starting motor.
Crank the engine until the oil pressure gauge indicates
system pressure.
NOTE: Allow 2 minutes between the 30-second cranking
periods so the starting motor can cool.
NOTE: If pressure is not indicated, find and correct the
problem before continuing.
Allow the lubricating oil to drain into the oil pan, and
measure the oil level with the dipstick.
Add oil as necessary to bring the level to the high level
mark.
Lubricate the gasket on the fuel filter with clean 15W-40
oil.
Fill the fuel filter with clean fuel.
Screw the fuel filter onto the filter head until the gasket
contacts the filter head surface.
Tighten the filter an additional 1/2 to 3/4 turn.
