element edges between the air filter housing and cover. This could cause
filter damage and allow unmetered air to enter the engine if not properly
seated.
6. Replace the air filter housing
cover and secure the clamps. Be
sure all of the tabs on front edge are
correctly aligned as shown.
Note:If you encounter any difficulty in replacing your air filter element,
have your vehicle serviced at your authorized dealer.
