Dirty air filters reduce the engine output by restricting air to the
carburettor. Regular checks are therefore essential. The air filter should
be checked after every 25 hours of use and cleaned if necessary. If
the air contains a lot of dust, the air filter should be checked more
frequently.
Spark Plug:
Torch L8RTC, Champion RCJ6Y, NGK BPMR7A or
