Air Cleaner Element Replacement
○
In dusty areas, the element should be replaced more frequently than the
recommended interval.
If dirt or dust is allowed to pass through into the throttle body assy,
the throttle may become stuck, possibly causing accident. Replace
the air cleaner element according to the maintenance chart.
If dirt gets through into the engine, excessive en- gine wear and
possibly engine damage will occur.
