Parts and consumables:

  • rags
  • New air filter

Notes:

For the high-quality operation of the fuel system of the car, the purity of the incoming air, which is cleaned by the air filter, is important. During the operation of the car, it gets dirty, so it needs to be replaced.

According to the regulations, the air filter must be changed every 30-45 thousand kilometers. But it should be changed as it gets dirty. The frequency of replacement is mainly influenced by the conditions in which the vehicle is operated.

Notes:

The shape of the filter element installed on the car corresponds to the shape of the air filter housing, so the installation of another element is excluded.

The filter material should not be washed with gasoline, water, lubricated with oil, blown with compressed air. The operation of the fuel system depends on the quality of air purification, therefore, when replacing, you always need to install only a new consumable.

When replacing, make sure that the sealing rubbers are installed along the guides located inside the case and fit snugly against the resonator. Thus, the possibility of debris from the resonator entering the cylinder block is excluded. This will serve as a guarantee of clean air in the car.
