Air Induction System Maintenance. When working on the air induction system, always keep in mind that the system’s function is to provide the engine with clean air. Always protect the engine against severe damage from dirt, dust and foreign objects. Do everything you can to keep dirt out of the system. The following maintenance practices must be followed any time you are working on the air induction system. (1) Never start the engine without the air induction system completely installed. (2) Always protect the system when it is disassembled by closing off all ducts leading to the engine with heavy paper and tape. (3) Take off paper and tape and wipe all dirt out of the system before reassembling. (4) Always make sure seals are airtight and in top condition. Replace any seals that are cracked, split, torn or hardened. (5) Before taking off any hydraulic hoses, tubes or electrical harnesses, tag them to show location. Tagging saves time and avoids errors. Remove tags after parts are installed. 2-6
