CHANGING THE OIL AND FILTER
9
o The engine oil consumption is
strongly effected by the viscosity
and quality of oil, engine rpm and
driving condition etc. The engine
oil is more consumed under severe
driving conditions such as high
speeds and frequent acceleration
and deceleration than normal driv-
ing condition.
