The air cleaner element should be
replaced every 40,000 km. More
frequent replacement is necessary
when you drive under dusty

CAUTION
SPARK PLUGS
You should inspect spark plugs periodically
for carbon deposits. When carbon
accumulates on a spark plug, a strong
spark may not be produced. Remove
carbon deposits with a wire or pin and
adjust the spark plug gap.
