The oil level sight gage on the right side of the oil pan(see Figure 3-3) is used to read crankcase oil level whether the engine Is running or not.Crankcase air pressure is greater than the atmosphere. When adding lube oil with the enginerunning, wrap the oil spout with a rag so that the engine oil filler neck will be plugged when thespout Is inserted. This will prevent oil from being blown out of the crankcase.3-4
