#25. Reconnect negative battery cable. Check oil level, and start it up.
Check for leaks. If all is well, take it for a short drive and then check for leaks again.

Well, that's how I did it. First draft BTW, so I may have omitted stuff and made some errors in my typing. No guarantees on anything, so work at your own risk!!
Recommendations:
• Do this shortly before you need an oil change. You're certain to get a small amount of debris into the cam/valve area.
• Use lint-free rags when wiping oil seal areas. The less lint and debris that gets into the engine, the better.
• Do this only when the engine is cold. |
