We recommend keeping the tank over 1/4 full. When the needle is near E, refuel as soon as possible. If the engine oil pressure gauge moves to L (low) while you are driving, drive to the side of the road and park off the right-ofway. Set the parking brake. Then follow steps 1 through 3. 1. Turn off the engine and inspect the engine oil level (page 8-13). If it's low, add oil. 2. Start the engine. 3. If the needle still doesn't move, get a tow to the nearest service station or to an Authorized Mazda Dealer. CAUTION M Engine Oil Pressure Gauge Don't run the engine if the oil pressure is low. It could result in extensive engine damage. Engine oil pressure is normal when the engine oil pressure gauge needle points halfway between L and H with the engine running. If the needle on the gauge doesn't move after starting the engine, follow steps 1 through 3. 5-20 Form No. 8Q42-EA-01F
