Air Filter Red Flags
Your air filter has some serious red flags when wear and tear are evident. If the smell of gasoline is inside the vehicle, and black gunk or soot is exiting from the exhaust, chances are your air filter desperately needs to be replaced. Another telltale sign of a bad air filter is lower horsepower and mediocre fuel economy.
As always, it's better to be safe rather than sorry. It's recommended that you change your air filter around every two years, or every 20,000 miles driven.
The Wonders of a Clean Air Filter
We've gone over how you can tell your air filter is dirty/damage, but why is a clean air filter so important? Well, your vehicle is constantly intaking air to run. A clean air filter lets gasoline effectively burn and lets your engine run as efficiently as possible.
The more you drive, the more dirt and debris gets stuck inside the air filter. Without a clear pathway for airflow, your engine won't work to its full capacity, and more gasoline will be burned, worsening your fuel economy.
