If sampling at the prescribed interval is not always possible, a 10 per- cent variance, before or after the sched- uled interval date or miles for sampling, is permissible. The need for on-condition oil changes will be determined by the AOAP Laboratory. Hard time intervals will al- ways apply to the transmission oil filter element. CARD 16 of 32 Change 3
