The importance of air filter element

Air filter , it has a quite important role in car maintenance, the engine in the process of operation will be a large amount of air inhaled, the impurities in the air and particles will increase the burden of cylinder and piston component, air filter can filter out impurities and particles in the air, protect the normal operation of the engine.

If the air is not filtered, the suspended dust is sucked into the cylinder, which will accelerate the wear of the piston assembly and cylinder. Large particles entering between the piston and cylinder can cause serious "cylinder pulling" phenomenon, which is especially serious in dry and sandy working environment. The air filter element is installed in front of the carburetor or intake pipe to remove dust and sand from the air and ensure sufficient and clean air in the cylinder

Although the air filter element is a very humble part, it does not directly affect the technical performance of the car, but in the process of using the car, the air filter element has a great impact on the life of the car, especially the engine. On the one hand, if there is no air filter filter action, the engine will inhale a lot of dust, particles of air, leading to serious wear of the engine cylinder.

On the other hand, if the air filter element is not maintained for a long time during use, it will be filled with dust in the air, which will not only reduce the filtration capacity, but also hinder the flow of air, resulting in too strong mixture and abnormal engine operation. Therefore, it is very important to maintain the air filter on schedule.
