Air Filter - GAS GAS FSE 450 - 2006 User Manual

AIR FILTER

An obstructed air filter restricts the air intake of the engine, increasing
the petrol consumption and reducing the engine power as well as
the destruction of the spark plug.
An obstructed air filter may allow dirt to enter into the injector blocking
it open; this could lead to an accident.
CAUTION
An obstructed air filter will allow dirt to enter the engine causing
excess wear and engine damage.
Inspect this without fault, before and after each race or session.
Clean if necessary.
Cleaning the air filter
WARNING
Clean the filter in a well-ventilated zone and ensure that there are
no sources of naked flame or sparks near the work area (including
the focus of a powerful light). Do not use petrol to clean the filter as
this could result in an explosion.
WARNING
(A)
Stuff a clean, lint-free towel into the intake manifold so that no dirt
is allowed to enter.
Do not spin the filter on its cage. It is possible to tear or damage the
filter.
- Clean inside the filter housing using a damp cloth.
