[KiwiDave]

Has anyone found an easy way to remove the 3 cowls around the engine.
I've tried what the manual says,but can't seem to be able to shift them,don't want to break anything.

Hopefully an image locating the clips will give you the location and some confidence to tug a little harder.

Thankyou,far more precise location than the book

From the factory, the rubber grommets that the pins on the cowls locate into are dry and can grab the pins. Ease them out gently and then lubricate the rubber grommets with silicon spray or similar so it’s much easier in the future.
