Caution
The air cleaner cover should be removed carefully,
because it includes the volume air flow sensor.
/
(5) Remove the air cleaner element.(6) Set a new air cleaner element and install the air cleaner cover.

(1) Disconnect the volume air flow sensor connector.
(2) Disconnect the breather hose, purge hose, by-pass air hose and boost hose connections.
(3)Remove the air intake hose on the air cleaner cover side
and then move the air intake hose to the front of the air
cleaner body.
(4) Unclamp the air cleaner cover.
Caution
Care must be taken when removing the air cleaner
cover, because the volume air flow sensor is at-
tached.
(5) Take out the air cleaner element.
(6) Check the air cleaner element for dirt or clogging; if necessary, clean by using compressed air.
(7) Replace the air cleaner element if the dirt or clogging
is
serious.
(8) Insert the element into the air cleaner body and install the air cleaner cover.
(9) Install the air intake hose.
(10)Connect the breather hose, purge hose, by-pass air
hose and boost hose.

4. SPARK PLUGS (Replace)
h%OSAOFa
1. Spark plugs must spark properly to assure proper engine performance and reduce exhaust emission
level.
Therefore, they should be replaced periodically with
new ones.
2. The new plugs should be checked for the proper gap.
Spark plug gap:
1.0-1.1
mm (.039-.043

in.)
0.7-0.8 mm (.028-.031 in.)
3.Install the spark plug and tighten to 20-30 Nm (15-21
ftlbs.).
5. TIMING BELT (Replace)moossAsa
Replace the belt with a new one periodically to assure
proper engine performance.
For disassembly and reassembly procedures, refer to
GROUP 11 -Service Adjustment Procedures.

6. DRIVE BELT (For Water Pump and
Generator) (Inspect for tension)
MOOSBBN
(1) Place straight edge as shown in the illustration.
(2) Measure the deflection with a force of
100 N (22 Ibs.)
applied to belt mid-point between water pump pulley
and generator pulley. If the standard value is not ob-
tained, make adjustment.
Standard value: 9.0-l 1.5 mm (.354-.453
in.)
(3) Use a tension gauge to check the belt tension. If the standard value is not obtained, make adjustment.
When tension gauge is used, the tension may be
measured between any two pulleys.
Standard value:
250-500 N (55-110
Ibs.)
7. ENGINE OIL (Change)MOOSAABc
Always use lubricants which conform to the requirements
of the API classification “For Service SG” or “For Service SG/CD”
when available, and have the proper SAE grade
number for the expected temperature range.
Never
Lose nondetergent or straight mineral oil.
(1) After warming up the engine, remove the oil filler cap.
(2) Remove the drain plug to drain the engine oil. (3) Replace the drain plug gasket with a new one and
tighten the drain plug.
(4) Supply new engine oil through the oil filler.

(5) Start and run the engine a few minutes.
(6) Stop the engine and check the engine oil level.
8. ENGINE OIL FILTER (Change)
MOOSABG
The quality of replacement filters varies considerably. Only high
quatlity filters should be used to assure most efficient
service. Genuine oil filters require that the filter is capable of
withstarlding a pressure of 256 psi are high quality filters
and are recommended as follows:
Oil Filter Part No.
