were replaced, an ECU Reset and TPS Learn is
required. Refer to Electrical System for ECU
Reset and TPS Learn procedure.
Engine is now completely reassembled. Before starting
or operating engine, be sure to do following.
1. Make sure all hardware is tightened securely.
2. Make sure oil drain plugs, Oil Sentry™ pressure
switch, and a new oil fi lter are installed.
3. Verify crankcase has been fi lled with correct amount,
weight, and type of oil. Refer to oil recommendations
and procedures in Maintenance, Specifi cations, and
Lubrication System.
4. Adjust idle speed adjusting screw as necessary.
Refer to Fuel System.
5. Turn on fuel supply.
Install Throttle Control Panel
NOTE: To identify various parts and assembly of throttle
control panel, refer to External Governor Control
Components.
1. Secure throttle control panel to crankcase with
thread forming screws.
2. Attach governor spring to previously marked hole on
governor lever.
Install Air Cleaner Assembly
Refer to Air Cleaner/Intake Air for air cleaner reassembly
procedure.
Heavy-Duty Air Cleaner
1. Install air cleaner assembly onto throttle body
mounting studs. Secure with nuts and screws.
Torque nuts to 7.4-9.0 N·m (65.5-80 in. lb.) and
torque screws to 4.6-6.9 N·m (41-61 in. lb.).
Low-Profi le Air Cleaner
1. Verify O-ring is present around machined O.D. of
throttle body and place air cleaner base onto throttle
body studs. Secure air cleaner base using nuts.
Attach air cleaner base bracket to cylinder heads
with screws behind any control panel or bracket.
Attach air cleaner base to lower bracket with 2 M5
screws through lower section of base. Torque nuts to
6.2-7.3 N·m (55-65 in. lb.), and 2 lower M5 mounting
screws (when applicable) to 4.0 N·m (35 in. lb.).
2. Install air cleaner components as described in Air
Cleaner/Intake.
Setting Initial Governor Adjustment
ECH EFI
1. Move governor lever toward throttle body as far as it
will go (wide-open throttle) and hold in position.
2. Insert a nail into hole on cross shaft and rotate shaft
counterclockwise as far as it will turn, then torque
hex nut to 7.1 N·m (63 in. lb.).
BOSCH EFI (CH26, CH735, CH745)
Refer to EFI SYSTEM-BOSCH section for Initial
Governor Adjustment procedure.
Install Muffl er
