What the Air Filter Does...
Like oil filters, air filters can be easily overlooked. They often don't get replaced until they are absolutely clogged with dirt and soot. To help keep a vehicle running well, and to protect the intake system from premature wear, it's important to change the air filter in your vehicle at the proper intervals.

The air filter removes soot, carbon, abrasives and other contaminants from the air before the air mixes with fuel in the engine induction system. If allowed to get inside the engine, even microscopic dust particles can damage cylinder walls, pistons and piston rings. Since as much as 10,000 gallons of air must pass through the air filter for every gallon of fuel the engine burns, WIX quality air filters -- available for virtually every vehicle -- lengthen engine life by preventing the introduction of damaging foreign particles to the fuel mix. Our comprehensive line of quality air filters encompasses various applications, both stationary and vehicular for both on and off-road applications.
