Installation
1. Clean the surface of the spark plug gas-
ket and its mating surface, and then wipe
off any grime from the spark plug
threads.
2. Install the spark plug and tighten it to the
specified torque. If a torque wrench is not
available when you are installing the
spark plug, a good estimate of the cor-
rect torque is one-quarter to one-half turn
past finger tight. Have the spark plug
tightened to the specified torque as soon
as possible.
3. Install the spark plug cap.
4. Lower the cargo bed.

Cleaning the air filter element
The air filter element should be cleaned every
20–40 hours of engine operation. It should be
cleaned and lubricated more often if the vehi-
cle is operated in extremely dusty areas. Each
time air filter maintenance is performed,
check the air inlet to the air filter case for ob-
structions and also check the air filter element
rubber joint to the throttle body and manifold
