What happens if the fuel filter is very dirty? Here is a detailed analysis of the fuel filter and the air filter for you.
One The role of the filter
1. The role of Fuel filter
Fuel filter is abbreviated as steam filter, and its main function is to filter out impurities in gasoline. If the Fuel filter is too dirty or clogged, it may result in increased engine fuel consumption.
The main manifestations are as follows: when the gas is refueling, the power is slow or unable to get up, the car is difficult to start, and sometimes it takes 2-5 times to strike.
2. The role of air filter
The air filter can also be abbreviated as air filter, and its main function is to purify the air entering the engine. It is generally composed of a shell and a filter element, and the filter element is arranged in the shell.
If the air filter is dirty, the air intake resistance will increase. When it increases to a certain level, the engine may not get enough air supply, resulting in insufficient power. And if the air filter is damaged, dust and sand particles in the air will enter the engine, which will accelerate the wear and tear of the engine, thereby reducing the service life of the engine.
Second The identification method of true and false filtration
1. Fuel filter
To distinguish between genuine and fake fuel filters, by hand, the weight of fake and genuine is different. Because the material of the filter element in the fake steam filter is different from that of the real steam filter. Second, look at the appearance, the sealing edge of the fake steam filter is very rough, and it can be seen with the naked eye. The sealing edge of the real steam filter is very thin, and the material and gloss are also different.
2. Air filter
The identification method of air filtration is also by looking. The first is to look at the size of the filter element. When buying a new filter element, you need to compare it with the filter element removed from the original car. The second is to look at the material of the air filter. Normally, the color of the filter paper of the genuine air filter element is uniform, while the color of the filter paper of the inferior filter element is not uniform.
Three Filter maintenance method
1. Maintenance of Fuel filter
Because most engines are equipped with disposable non-removable paper filter Fuel filters, it is recommended that the Fuel filter be maintained regularly and timely. The replacement cycle is generally 10,000 kilometers. Of course, if you add gasoline with less impurities, it is not a problem to replace one at 15,000-20000 kilometers. It should be noted that the installation of the filter must check the arrow marks on the oil inlet and outlet ports on the filter, and do not install it backwards.
2.Air filter maintenance
The maintenance method of the air filter can be divided into cleaning and replacement. Under normal circumstances, the air filter must be cleaned and maintained after the car has driven 7500-8000km. Of course, in areas with a high degree of sand and dust, the maintenance interval should be shortened accordingly.
GHL’s filter effectively filters ultra-fine particles and dust, keeping the engine in the best operating environment; water resistance ensures stable filter performance under various conditions; imported high-quality materials ensure high air flow and large dust holding capacity ; Special origami technology, moisture-proof and dehumidification, enhanced filtration performance.
