OEM Vehicle Air Cleaner Assemblies
Your vehicle's factory air cleaner assembly helps to prevent abrasive airborne particles from getting into the engine and its cylinders. The assembly itself consists of an engine air filter and a housing. Typically, it's found above or next to the throttle body. On older models, though, it may be located next to or above your carburetor.
The housing is typically made from either plastic or metal and has a removable lid to make it easier to remove the air filter. The air cleaner assembly itself can be made of paper, foam, cotton, or oil bath. Paper is most common and offers excellent filtering efficiency. They're affordable and ideal for daily driving. Foam and cotton air cleaner assemblies optimize airflow, making them ideal for sports cars and performance models. An oil bath air cleaner assembly provides elevated air filtration, making it well-suited for off-roading. This set-up features a sump that contains pools of oil and a coarse insert material such as mesh, foam, or fiber.
To keep your air cleaner assembly in proper working order, check it every 12,000 to 15,000 miles. Your owner's manual will detail your precise maintenance schedule.
How to Spot Air Cleaner Assembly Problems
Signs of failure include:
- Your "Check Engine" dash light engages
- You have ignition trouble
- You hear weird engine noises
- Your fuel efficiency suffers
Genuine OEM Air Cleaner Assemblies Work Best
Your air cleaner assembly needs to be replaced once it gets dirty. If you wait too long, the engine cylinders won't get enough air. When yours needs replacing, choose the same air cleaner assembly parts that originally came with your model. Your manufacturer makes the only ones that are guaranteed to fit and perform right, so you can trust in their quality. Our online auto parts counter has plenty in stock.
