KGT Air Cleaner Replacement

Reassembly after filter inspection/replacement.

The process is essentially backwards with attention paid to fit of the air filter into the snorkle and adding some lubricant (optional) to the nipple pins for ease future dissassembly.

Insert filter into snorkle, with snorkle oriented with the intake opening at the 6 o'clock position

After the snorkle is fully inserted and secured it is time to remount the computer.

As was done with the snorkle nipple pin, do the same for the computer mount

Mounting the computer completed the replacement of the air filter.

Replace the right side panel in the reverse order of removal to finish completely (noting the various screw lengths and their postion as you reassemble) :dance
