Testing and Maintenance

Engage parking brake and start your engine.

•
Listen for abnormal noises. If an air leak is

detected, re-inspect hoses and connections as
they may need to be repositioned and tightened.

S&B Filters recommends that you keep your OE

•
intake system in the event it is required in the

future.

In order to maintain your warranty, all connections

•
and components must be checked periodically for

alignment and for proper tension on all
connections every 6-12 months. Failure to do so
may void your warranty.

Use only S&B FILTERS cleaning and oil products

•
to service your filter. Using any other brand oil

and or cleaners on your S&B air filter will void
your warranty.
