Figure 6: ENGINE OIL FILL GAUGE
1.
Requirements: engine oil consumption and level
NOTE: If the engine oil level is checked during
preflight, the sight gauge readings will be higher
than normal because of oil bleed-back from the
engine. A low oil indication should be cause for
concern.
NOTE: The service check for engine oil should be
completed no sooner than 5 minutes and no later
than 30 minutes after engine shutdown (completely
stopped) to avoid erroneous readings or possible
over-servicing.
