AIR FILTER INSPECTION
Press the latch tabs on the fuel tank side of the air cleaner cover, and
remove the cover. Check the filter to be sure
it is clean and in good
condition.
If the filter is dirty, clean it as described on page 30. Replace the filter if
it is damaged.
Reinstall the filter and air cleaner cover.

Operating the engine without an air filter, or with a damaged air filter,
will allow dirt to enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear. This type
of damage is not covered by the Distributor's Limited Warranty.
