leaks. A streak of dust on the clean
side of the filter is a telltale sign.

before installing a new filter.
Clean engine air filter by tapping out
heavy dust from paper element, this
will allow dirt and dust to get out of
the paper filter.

Blow compressed air on the paper
element; this could damage the
paper fibers and reduce its filtration
ability when used in dusty
environments. If engine air filter is

the filter sealing surface and the
inside of the outlet tube. Ensure that
the outlet tube sealing area is
