Removal Procedure
- Remove the negative battery cable.
- Loosen the nut holding the tube to the exhaust manifold. Pull upward.
- Remove the oil level indicator and tube.
Caution: Unless directed otherwise, the ignition and start switch must be in the OFF or LOCK position, and all electrical loads must be OFF before servicing any electrical component. Disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent an electrical spark should a tool or equipment come in contact with an exposed electrical terminal. Failure to follow these precautions may result in personal injury and/or damage to the vehicle or its components.
Installation Procedure
- Install the oil indicator tube assembly to the engine. Ensure that the O ring is in place. Ensure that the tube assembly is fully seated in the engine.
- Slide the tube assembly under the exhaust manifold nut.
- Connect the negative battery cable.
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
Tighten
Tighten the oil indicator tube nut to 19 N·m (14 lb ft).
