clips, and remove the air

the main filter. Install a new
main filter if needed.

Breather Filter
The breather filter is on the hose that runs between the engine and air
box.
1. Remove the clamps and pull the breather filter out of the hoses. It's
not necessary to remove the lower hose from the engine.
2. Inspect the filter for debris. Blow gently through the filter in the
direction of the arrow to check for clogging. Replace if needed.
3. Check the hoses for cracks, deterioration, abrasion, or leaks.
Replace as needed.
4. Reinstall the filter and secure the clamps. The filter is effective with
the arrow pointing in either direction.
Operation of your vehicle without a breather filter can cause engine damage.
Always reinstall the breather filter after removing it for service.
