ISSUE:

The supercharger lubricating oil level must be checked as a routine maintenance item, every 30,000 miles (48,000 km).

ACTION:

Check the supercharger oil level every 30,000 miles (48,000 km) as follows:

CHECKING SUPERCHARGER OIL LEVEL

WARNING:
Do not remove the filler plug when the engine is hot, since hot oil under pressure can spray out uncontrollably.





1. Use a 3/16 in. Allen wrench to remove the oil filler plug, located at the front of the supercharger (Illustration 1). The plug has an 0-ring attached to prevent possible leakage. Carefully remove the plug to prevent damage to the seal that could result in leaks.

2. The oil level should be level with the bottom of the screw thread in the filler opening.

WARNING:
Carefully read the Caution labels on the bottle regarding safe use before opening.

3. Add oil if needed, and carefully insert the 0-ring into the opening and screw in the plug. Torque the filler plug to 5.1 - 10.3 ft lb (7 - 14 Nm).
