ENGINE FLAME ARRESTOR
CAUTION:
Service the flame arrestor more frequently under severely dusty
or dirty conditions.
Your flame arrestor filters air entering the engine induction system and acts as a
silencer. Air that contains dirt and grit produces an abrasive fuel mixture and can cause
severe damage to the cylinder walls and piston rings. Damage to the cylinder walls and
piston rings will cause high oil consumption and short engine life. A restricted or dirty
flame arrestor will also cause a rich fuel mixture.
Therefore it is extremely important that the flame arrestor be serviced at the
recommended intervals.
1. Clean screen by washing with solvent.
2. Blow dry or allow to drip dry prior to installation
3. Remove all dust and foreign matter from spark arrestor
4. Make sure the flame arrestor is seated properly on the throttle body and secured with
the proper clamp when reinstalling.
