Auto Repair Video Site

First thing we’re gonna look at is the dip stick, it’s to the left there. Now you go ahead and this is where you put oil into the car. Oil cap on top, you can’t miss it. Dip stick here – you want to make sure your car is on level ground. You want it to be warm, you don’t want it to be hot, it’s better off that it’s not cold to get a true reading on the dip stick.

Here you have your crosshatch and will be able to tell you exactly how much – how much oil we have. The warning says it all, don’t open that up. If you’re going to put fluid in this car go ahead and put it in the reservoir to the left there, water, antifreeze or whatever. Now this is the power steering reservoir –uh- you don’t want to get dirt in there. You want to make sure that –uh- you do not get the contaminate in there.

You can look on the side, it’ll tell you exactly how much to fill up. Check with your manual or with your part store to tell you exactly what’s the best type of fluid to use for this car.
