PROBLEMS THAT MAY AFFECT EMISSIONS
Have your engine inspected and repaired by a qualified technician
if you are aware of any of the following symptoms.
1. Hard starting or stalling after starting.
2. Rough idle.
3. Misfiring or backfiring under load.
4. Afterburning (backfiring).
5. Black exhaust smoke or high fuel consumption.
REPLACEMENT PARTS
The emission control systems on the engine is designed, built and
certified to conform to Canadian emission regulations. Genuine
parts are recommended when servicing the engine. Genuine
replacement parts are manufactured to the same standards as
the original parts. Using replacement parts that are not of the
original design and quality may impair the effectiveness of the
emission control system.
It is the responsibility of the aftermarket part manufacturer to
certify that the part will not result in a failure of the engine to
comply with emission regulations.
SERVICE THE AIR FILTER
NOTICE! Operating the engine with a damaged or missing air
filter will allow dust and debris to enter the engine, causing
rapid engine wear or scoring on the engine pistons. Always
ensure the air filter is in place.
A dirty air filter will restrict airflow to the carburetor, reducing the
engine’s performance. Clean the air filter more frequently than
specified in the maintenance schedule if the engine is used in
dusty areas.
1. Remove the air cleaner’s outside cover (Fig. 6). Do not allow
dirt and debris from to fall into the air cleaner assembly.
2. Remove the air filter from the air filter housing.
