Remove nut from the front axles and remove the old wheels, then lube the axles and slide on the new wheels and tighten the wheel nuts. Remove the air filter cover, remove the old, dirty air filter and install the new one. Remove the old spark plug, gap the new one at 0.030 Runs like a champ now. Thank you!
