PERIODICALLY (DURING EACH ENGINE OIL CHANGE) CHECK THE FOLLOWING

• Intake Tubes and Filter connections and Intake Box fasteners making sure they are tight.

• All electrical connections and wire harnesses moved during the installation of the intake and make sure they are secure and away from any hot or moving components.
