Do You know what can restrict airflow into the engine

Do you know an engine air filter prevents your engine from being damaged with dirt, dust, sand, and other contaminants.

✅ Your air filter can make a huge difference to your car’s performance. A clean and correctly installed air filter enhances fuel economy, increases engine life, lowers emissions and boosts acceleration. Most manufacturers recommend replacing your air filter every 12,000 miles (approximately 19,000 km) or every 12 months, whichever comes first. However, you should consider replacing your air filter more frequently if you live in an agricultural area or any area with a lot of dust or impurities in the air.

1. A Decrease in Engine Power. Does your car respond normally when you press the accelerator? Or is it slow and sluggish? If it’s the second, there’s a good chance a dirty air filter is preventing your engine from receiving the clean air it needs to perform optimally. Simply replacing your air filter can eliminate this issue.

2. Reduced Fuel Efficiency. Decreasing fuel economy is a clear sign of a bad or dirty air filter. A bad or dirty air filter restricts air flow, lowering the oxygen in the mixture. Your engine compensates for this by consuming more fuel to produce enough power to move the same distance or speed as you could with a clean filter.

3. The Engine Misfires. A dirty air filter decreases the amount of air supplied to the engine. This can lead to an increase in unburned fuel that turns into soot residue. Soot can mound up on the spark plug tips making them unable to deliver a proper spark. In return, the car can jerk, idle, and in some circumstances, the engine can misfire.
