Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather necessary tools and parts.
• Ensure the vehicle is on a flat surface and securely supported.
• Disconnect the battery to prevent electrical shorts during repairs.

2. Replace Air Filter

• Locate the air filter housing.
• Open the housing and remove the old air filter.
• Install a new air filter, ensuring it fits snugly.
• Secure the housing cover.

3. Inspect and Replace Spark Plugs

• Remove the ignition coil or spark plug wires.
• Use a spark plug socket to remove the old spark plugs.
• Inspect and replace with new spark plugs (following manufacturer specs for gap settings).
• Reinstall the ignition coils or wires.

4. Clean or Replace Fuel Injectors

• Disconnect the fuel lines and electrical connectors from the injectors.
• Remove the injectors using a socket set.
• Clean the injectors with a dedicated injector cleaner or replace them if necessary.
• Reinstall the injectors securely, reconnect the fuel lines, and electrical connections.

5. Check and Adjust Tire Pressure
