ENGINE AIR CLEANER
1. Remove the air cleaner cover and foam filter element
as shown in Figure 22.
2. Tap the paper filter element (See Figure 22)
several times on a hard surface to remove dirt, or
blow compressed air [not exceeding 30 psi (207 kPa,
2.1 kgf/cm
2
)] through the filter element from the air
cleaner case side.
NEVER
brush off dirt. Brushing
will force dirt into the fibers. Replace the paper filter
element if it is excessively dirty.
3. Clean foam element in warm, soapy water or
non-flammable solvent. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Dip
the element in clean engine oil and completely squeeze
out the excess oil from the element before installing.
