Replace with a new oil filter and add new engine oil. Precautions for using engine oil include: 1. The oil level should be slightly below the mark on the dipstick. Engine oil is crucial for the engine, serving the dual functions of lubrication and heat dissipation; 2. Choose engine oil with different viscosities based on the engine's operating conditions. Use lower viscosity oil in colder seasons and higher viscosity oil in warmer seasons.
