Required Maintenance For Noise Control Systems
The following maintenance services must be performed
every six months or 7,500 miles (12 000 km) whichever
comes first, to assure proper operation of the noise control
systems. In addition, inspection and service should be
performed anytime a malfunction is observed or sus-
pected. Proper maintenance of the entire vehicle will help
the effectiveness of the noise control systems.
Exhaust System
Inspect the entire exhaust system for leaks and damaged
parts. Devices such as hangers, clamps, and U-bolts should
be tight and in good condition. Damaged components,
burned or blown out mufflers, burned or rusted out
exhaust pipes should be replaced according to the proce-
dures and specifications outlined in the appropriate service
manual.
Air Cleaner Assembly
Inspect air cleaner housing for proper assembly and fit.
Make certain that the air cleaner is properly positioned and
that the cover is tight. Check all hoses leading to the air
cleaner for tightness. The air filter element must also be
clean and serviced according to the instructions outlined in
the Scheduled Maintenance section of this manual.
