Air Fi Lter - Husqvarna 326 E Workshop Manual

3
In addition to the fuel tank and carburettor, the fuel system consists of the air fi lter, fuel fi lter and tank
venting.
All these components interact so that the engine receives the optimal mixture of fuel and air to make it as
effi cient as possible. Very small deviations in the carburettor setting or a blocked air fi lter have a large ef-
fect on the running and effi ciency of the engine.
The carburettor can come from several diff erent manufacturers on our models, but the function and repair
methods are essentially the same.
