How to Inspect the Engine Air
Cleaner/Filter

To inspect the air cleaner/filter, remove the filter from
the vehicle and lightly shake the filter to release
loose dust and dirt. If the filter remains “caked” with dirt,
a new filter is required.

To inspect or replace the air cleaner/filter, do the
following:

1. Remove the two clamps on the duct.

2. Remove the duct.

3. Unlatch the two hooks on top of the engine air

cleaner/filter housing.

4. Remove and replace the engine air cleaner/filter.

5. Align the tabs located on the bottom of the

panel with the slots at the bottom of the housing.

6. Latch the hooks to secure the panel in place. If the

panel moves easily, check that the tabs are seated
correctly in the slots.

7. Put the duct back on and reinstall the clamps.

{

CAUTION:

Operating the engine with the air cleaner/filter
off can cause you or others to be burned. The
air cleaner not only cleans the air, it helps to
stop flame if the engine backfires. If it isn’t there
and the engine backfires, you could be burned.
Don’t drive with it off, and be careful working on
the engine with the air cleaner/filter off.

Notice: If the air cleaner/filter is off, a backfire can
cause a damaging engine fire. And, dirt can
easily get into your engine, which will damage it.
Always have the air cleaner/filter in place when
you’re driving.
