Air Cleaner Element Inspection and Cleaning

Inspect and clean element

Inspection
1) Remove the air cleaner element. Refer to "Air
Cleaner Element Removal and Installation in Section
1D (Page 1D-5)".
2) Inspect the air cleaner element for clogging. If it is
clogged with dirt, clean or replace it with a new one.
CAUTION
!
If driving under dusty conditions, inspect or
clean the air cleaner element more frequently.
The surest way to accelerate engine wear is
to operate the engine without the element or
to use a torn element. Make sure that the air
cleaner is in good condition at all times. Life
of the engine depends largely on this
component.
3) After finishing the air cleaner element inspection,
reinstall the removed parts.
Cleaning

restricting air flow through the air cleaner
element.
4) After cleaning the air cleaner element, reinstall the
removed parts.
5) Drain water from the air cleaner by removing the
drain plug.
