Dirty air filters reduce engine power,
increase fuel consumption and
make starting more difficult.
The air filter must be cleaned when
there is a noticeable loss of engine
power.

– Clean away any loose dirt from
around the filter and filter cover.

When reassembling, check that the
air filter housing is of the right type:

(arrow) for tank vent with return
line to clean air side, b

only with the connecting hose to the
tank vent.

rate of wear and a risk of engine
damage.

reverse sequence.
