In chapter #4, (Fuel and exhaust systems) it shows "air cleaner housing - removal and installation" (section 9). Complete with a photo, it describes removing the entire housing ....just like the posters above describe. A much easier way to get to the air filter and do a good job reassembling.
Thank you--I will be attempting the dissassembly of the housing and checking the condition of the air filter. Much help!!
