This test report is required before any repair for excessive oil consumption is performed. It is intended that various external items be inspected prior to completion of this report. However, if all of the guidelines contained within have been met, available records can be used to complete this report. All information required in this report must be retained in dealership records.

1.
At the start of the oil consumption test, the crankcase must be drained and refilled with the correct grade and quantity of oil, and the proper viscosity for the ambient temperature. New Caterpillar oil filter elements must also be installed. The fuel tank must be filled.
(Note: These are normal maintenance items to be done at the owner's expense.)

Date______________ Engine miles / Kilometers (hour)____________

2.
     The vehicle owner must substantiate each fuel and oil addition to the      next oil change period with a daily log sheet showing date,      miles/kms/hrs, amount of fuel added, and amount of oil added.
     (see back page)

     (See page 2)

3.
At the end of the test, the fuel tank must be refilled at the owner's expense. The oil level on the dipstick must be noted to estimate the amount of oil used (distance down from dipstick "full" mark)

Date______________ Miles / Kilometers / Hours_________________

Complete each entry for oil consumption verification. Record odometer reading each day (mileage) even if no fuel or oil additions are made. Both odometer and hourmeter readings should be recorded if unit is so equipped. Oil additions should be made only when oil reaches the "ADD" level on the engine dipstick.
