ROAD TESTING:
1. Start the engine with the transmission in
neutral or park, and the parking brake
engaged. Listen for air leaks or odd noises.
For air leaks secure hoses and connections.
For odd noises, find cause and repair before
proceeding. This kit will function identically
to the factory system except for being louder
and much more responsive.
2. Test drive the vehicle. Listen for odd nois-
es or rattles and fix as necessary.
3. If road test is fine, you can now enjoy the
added power and performance from your kit.
IMPORTANT:
Service air filter according to the K&N
cleaning instructions (99-5050) when the
indicator on the restriction gauge is in
the 50 to 65% range. On vehicles that
come with an electric restrictor gauge,
you must read the gauge manually, do
not wait until the dash light illuminates.
Do not run the vehicle with the indicator
above the 65% range, as damage to the
air filter and or the engine could result.
