Spark Arrestor Service (California (EVAP) Models)

WARNING

Do not perform clean out immediately after the engine has been run, as the exhaust system becomes very hot. Serious burns could result from contact with exhaust components.

To reduce fire hazard, make sure that there are no combustible materials in the area when purging the spark arrestor.

Wear eye protection.

Do not stand behind or in front of the vehicle while purging the carbon from the spark arrestor.

Never run the engine in an enclosed area. Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas.

Do not go under the machine while it is inclined. Put the transmission in PARK (P), lock the parking brake, and block the wheels to prevent roll back.

Failure to heed these warnings could result in serious personal injury or death.

The spark arrestor should be periodically cleaned to remove accumulated carbon. A plugged spark arrestor will affect engine performance. Replace a cracked or damaged spark arrestor before running the vehicle.

  1. Remove the spark arrestor screen fasteners 1.

  1. Remove the spark arrestor 2 from the end of the muffler.

  2. Use a non-synthetic brush to clean the screen 3 on the spark arrestor. If necessary, blow debris from the screen with compressed air.

  1. Inspect the screen for wear and damage. Replace if damaged.
