Read all of manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings
Clean the filter by washing in any shop degreaser and brushing the
metal screen clean with a soft brush (Ref Fig. 30 on page 3-31).
Blow out the filter with low pressure air 30 psi (210 kPa) or less from no
closer than 3" (8 cm) and allow to air dry (Ref Fig. 31 on page 3-31).
Wipe the area around the filter mount with a clean, lint free cloth and
inspect both filter ‘O’ rings for damage; replace if necessary. Install the
filter into the engine. The filter engages over a short nipple in the
engine. The filter should slide easily onto the nipple and seat against
the engine using light hand pressure only. Align the holes in the filter
mounting plate with the holes in the engine. Install and hand tighten the
bolts before tightening them firmly.
Add slightly less than 1 1/2 quarts (1.4 liters) to allow for possible resid-
ual oil left in engine (Ref Fig. 32 on page 3-31). The oil must be high
quality oil that meets or exceeds API SF, SG, CC standards (Ref Fig. 44
on page 3-40). Check oil level on dipstick. If necessary, continue to add
oil slowly and allow time for oil to flow down into engine. Check oil level
on dipstick. Do not overfill.
Do not overfill engine. Too much oil
may cause smoking or allow oil to
enter the air filter enclosure.
