A.
WASH the foam element in a solution of
liquid soap and warm water. Squeeze it to
remove dirt, but do not twist it because the
foam may tear.
B.
DRY by wrapping it in a clean cloth.
Squeeze the cloth and foam element to
dry.
C.
SATURATE the element with clean
engine oil. Squeeze the element to remove
excess oil and to distribute oil thoroughly.
An oil damp element is desirable.
4.
When servicing the foam element, check the
condition of the paper element. Clean or replace
as required.
5.
Reinstall the foam element, paper element and
air cleaner cover.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate the engine
without an air cleaner element because
extreme engine wear and damage will likely
result.
Replacing The Spark Plug
Use an NGK BPR 5ES spark plug or equivalent.
Correct air gap is 0.71–0.79mm (0.028”–0.031“).
Remove the plug after every 100 operating hours
and check its condition.
1.
Pull the wire off the spark plug.
2.
Clean around the spark plug and remove the
plug from the cylinder head (Fig. 25)

IMPORTANT. Replace a cracked, fouled, or
dirty spark plug. Do not sand blast, scrape,
or clean electrodes because engine damage
could result from grit entering cylinder.
3.
Set the air gap at 0.71–0.79mm (0.028”–
0.031“) (Fig. 26). Install the correctly-gapped
spark plug and tighten it firmly to 27 Nm (20
ft-lb.)
