been filled with “break in”engine oilat the factory.Use a high-quality detergent oil classi-fied “For Service CC,SD,SE or SF.”Detergent oilskeep the engine cleaner and reduce carbon deposits.Use oil having the following SAE viscosity rating.based on the ambient temperature range anticipatedbefore the next oil change:  \n## Engine Lubrication System:\n\nType of Oil

   \nUse a mixture of half low silicate,ethylene glycol baseantifreeze and half soft water.Use only soft water andonly low silicate antifreeze.If desired,you may add ahigh quality rust inhibitor to the recommendedcoolant mixture.When adding coolant,always add therecommended 50-50 mixture.  \n## Cooling
