Check Spark Arrestor
A clogged spark arrester hinders exhaust gas flow
which reduces engine output, increases fuel
consumption, and makes starting difficult. Clean
the spark arrester regularly.
Clean the spark arrester (Figure 2, (1)) as follows:
1. Remove the locknut (Figure 2, (2)), end cap
(Figure 2, (3)) and diffuser discs (Figure 2, (4))
from the spark arrester.

2. Clean any carbon deposits from the spark
arrester.
3. Reinstall the diffuser discs (Figure 2, (4)) and
end cap (Figure 2, (3)) on the spark arrester
(Figure 2, (1)) and secure with the locknut
(Figure 2, (2)).
