The function and performance of the air filter element:
Filter the particulate impurities in the air to ensure sufficient clean air enters the cylinder, prevent floating dust from being sucked into the engine, and accelerate the wear of the piston group and cylinder. According to the maintenance manual of the car, the air filter of the car is generally maintained and replaced at intervals of 10000 to 20000 kilometers.
However, it is recommended to clean the air filter every 5000 kilometers to reduce the generation of throttle sludge. The position of the air filter element in a car varies depending on the intake form and the structure of the engine. Usually located in the air filter on the engine intake pipe.
Dirty air filter:
The use of dirty air filters during driving can lead to insufficient intake of air into the engine, incomplete fuel combustion, unstable engine operation, decreased power, and increased fuel consumption. Therefore, cars must keep their air filters clean.
A car air filter is a device that removes particulate impurities from the air, consisting of one or several clean air filter components. Its main function is to filter out harmful impurities in the air that will enter the cylinder.
To reduce the early wear of cylinder, piston, piston ring, valve and valve seat. Therefore, before air enters the cylinder, it must first pass through the fine filtration of the air filter before entering the cylinder.
