Paper air filter housings
To remove a paper air filter housing:
1. Remove the air filter by following the steps
described in the appropriate section above.
2. Remove the screw that holds the air filter housing to
the control bracket using a 10mm wrench. See Fig-
ure 3.4.
3. Remove the two nuts that hold the air filter body to
the carburetor mounting studs using a 10 mm
wrench. See Figure 3.4.
4. Disconnect the crankcase vent tube.
5. Lift away the filter housing.
NOTE: Behind the filter housing is a steel plate with
formed rubber gaskets vulcanized to each
surface. See Figure 3.5.
NOTE: Mark or note the orientation of the plate.
Notches in the plate allow air to reach emul-
sion ports: one for the main jet and one for
the pilot jet. Channels in the rubber provide
air passage to the choke-side bowl vent.
