Air Cleaner Assembly Components
1 - Air cleaner top cover; 2 - Filter element; 3 - Intake air temperature control valve-switch; 4 - Sealing gasket; 5 - Air cleaner housing; 6 - Mounting plate; 7 - Vacuum capsule; 8 - Inlet neck (135V series motors); 9 - Inlet sleeve; 10 - Inlet neck (136V series engines); 11 - Rubber support cushion; 12 - Support; 13 - Resonator box (136V series engines); 14 - Heated air supply hose
Removal
1. Release the wire retainers around the perimeter of the assembly, unscrew the three mounting bolts and remove the upper air cleaner cover. Remove the filter element.
2. Release the accelerator cable from the intermediate retainer on the front of the air cleaner housing...
disconnect the heated air supply hose from the temperature sensitive valve housing...
...on models equipped with 136B series engines, loosen the clamp and disconnect the air intake hose from the air cleaner housing or resonator box.
3. Slightly lift the air cleaner housing away from the throttle body. Disconnect the vacuum tube that runs under the housing and goes to the throttle body to control the temperature-sensitive sensor-switch. The second vacuum hose that goes to the capsule can be left connected.
4. Remove the large vent pipe from the top engine cover. Release the small hose from the top engine cover and the carbon canister purge hose from the clips on the underside of the air cleaner housing.
5. The air cleaner housing can now be removed from the engine compartment.
6. If necessary, the air cleaner inlet neck on 135B series engines can be removed after unscrewing the mounting screw.
7. To remove the casing of the intake air temperature control temperature sensitive valve, disconnect the vacuum tube from the capsule,
then release the two spring clips...
and remove the cover by sliding it forward.
8. On models equipped with a 136B series engine, a resonator box is installed inside the intake air duct, which allows to significantly reduce the intensity of the noise background. The box is secured with two nuts - one in the front and one in the back (on the suspension strut support). The general view of the air cleaner assembly is shown in the illustration.
Installation
Installation is carried out in the reverse order. Make sure that the vacuum tube is securely connected and that the air cleaner housing is correctly positioned on the throttle body (the possibility of air leaks must be completely eliminated). Check the condition of the rubber sealing gasket installed on top of the throttle body; replace if necessary.
