Defect

The cam profile on the water pump engine of water-spraying vehicles is inadequate. When the throttle is rapidly opened from near-stall to maximum speed, the engine may rotate in reverse. This causes exhaust gases to be expelled into the intake side, which may burn and damage the air cleaner element and air cleaner cover.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the water pump engine cam with a corrected part.
