Any body know how to read Japanese Characters

I found this on my clip a while back but never got to post it so here it is. It looks like it was the last time the car had a change oil. I can make out the kilometers but not the date, the first line are as follow (14, 6, 10), I can tell the second line is for kilometer, but what is the third line. This should tell me around when the last time this motor was on the street and how long it has been sitting in the junk yard.

opps, I didn't know it would put the name of my pics on the forum. I just named it like that so I would know what is was on my pc. lol

date till next oil change? oil weight?

how many liters?

not entirely sure...

oil filter number?

[fregisr]

yeah, but where does 14, 6, and 10 fall into?

[kamikazestorm420]

the first line says (according to you, you said the first number was a 14) year 14 june 10th.

the 3rd line tells you the brand/kind of oil they used and how many L they put in. the 4th line is telling you if they changed the oil filter or not. in this case it was a no.

thanks man, does japanese use the same year system as we do right? So that is probably 94 instead of 14?

[Nismo_Freak]

No, they use a different system.

14th year of Heisei, meaning 2002 in our calender.

June 10th, 2002
