    The recommendation on Page 125 in the manual says ride 9 miles, and and let idle 10 minutes, check within 2 minutes and gives Reliable oil level for your 1330 engine. I've tried other ways and the oil always varies...... this way has always worked with no surprises, 5 years and 3 1330's running for me....IMG_0500.jpg

    Your right. I knew that. Why did I suddenly think it was 25 minutes? Now to figure out a way to see the oil on the dipstick when you have fresh, clean oil in the sump. Easy when the oil is nice and dirty, not so easy when clean.
