Replacing the Air Filter
If the engine seems weak or runs unevenly, the air
filter may be clogged. If run with a dirty air filter, the
spark plugs can become fouled, disrupting operation.
For this reason, it is important to replace the air filter
regularly (see the heading Maintenance Schedule for
the proper service interval).
Cleaning/replacing the air filter is carried out as follows:
1. Remove the plastic fastener on the top of the
air filter cowling and remove the air filter
cowling.
2. Remove the foam rubber pre-filter and clean
using a mild detergent. Squeeze it dry with a
clean cloth.
3. Remove the wing nuts for the air filter and
remove the paper filter.
