IMPORTANT: When performing an oil filter and oil change on a diesel engine, use only 8 quarts of oil. This will bring the oil level between
"ADD" and "FULL", which is normal. Start the vehicle and wait until the engine reaches normal operating temperature. Shut the vehicle off and
wait a minimum of 15 minutes before checking the oil level. It should read "Full" or very close to "Full". Do not check the oil level when the
engine is cold, a false reading will occur.
