a b c d e f g Air cleaner
WASHING THE ELEMENT
1. Gently wash the air cleaner in clean, non-flammable (high flash point) solvent
such as kerosene-not gasoline. Allow the air cleaner to dry thoroughly before applying oil. A
wet air cleaner will not fully absorb the oil. NOTE: The element should be wet but not
dripping.
2. Soak the air cleaner an equivalent (gear oil: SAE 80-90) until saturated, then squeeze out
the excess oil. NOTE: The element should be wet but not dripping.
Twisting the air cleaner when squeezing out excess oil could damage the air cleaner.
Reassemble by reversing the disassembly sequence.
