How to Inspect the Engine Air
Cleaner/Filter

engine running with the engine air
cleaner/filter housing open. Before

make sure that the engine air cleaner/
filter housing and nearby components
are free of dirt and debris. Remove the
engine air cleaner/filter. Lightly tap
and shake the engine air cleaner/filter

loose dust and dirt. Inspect the engine
air cleaner/filter for damage, and
replace if damaged. Do not clean the

components with water or
compressed air.
