1. What happens if the air filter is dirty?
If the air filter is dirty, it may lead to an increase in engine fuel consumption.
2. What happens if the filter element of gasoline is dirty?
But if the gasoline filter is dirty, it will not generally lead to an increase in fuel consumption.
III. THE EFFECT OF FILTER
1. The Function of Gasoline Filter
Gasoline filter is called steam filter for short. Its main function is to filter impurities in gasoline. If the gasoline filter is dirty or blocked, the main performance is: when filling the throttle, the power is slower, or can not get up, the car is difficult to start, sometimes it takes 2-5 times to strike.
2. The Function of Air Filter
Air filter can also be referred to as air filter. Its main function is to purify the air entering the engine. Generally, it is composed of a shell and a filter element, which is arranged in the shell.
If the air filter is dirty, the intake resistance will increase, and when it increases to a certain extent, the engine may not get enough air supply, resulting in insufficient power and other situations. If the air filter is damaged, the dust and sand in the air will enter the engine, which will accelerate the wear and tear of the engine, thus reducing the service life of the engine.
IV. Identification Method of True and False Filtration
1. Gasoline filter
Distinguishing between genuine and fake gasoline filters depends on the weight of fake and genuine products. Because the material of filter element in false steam filter is different from that in true steam filter. Second, look at the appearance, false steam filter sealing edge, the trade union is very rough, with the naked eye can see. The sealing edge of the true steam filter is very fine, and the material and luster are also different.
2. Air filter
The identification method of air filter also depends on the size of the filter element. When purchasing new filter element, it is necessary to compare with the filter element removed from the original vehicle. The second is to look at the material of the air filter. Usually, the color of the filter paper of the genuine air filter is uniform, but the color of the filter paper of the inferior air filter is not uniform.
V. Maintenance methods of filters
1. Maintenance of Gasoline Filter
Because most engines are equipped with disposable paper filter, it is suggested that the maintenance of the gasoline filter should be replaced regularly and in time. The replacement cycle is usually 10,000 kilometers, of course, if you add less impurities in gasoline, 15,000-20,000 kilometers to replace one is not a problem. It should be noted that the installation of the filter must check the arrow mark of the oil inlet and outlet on the filter, and do not install the reverse.
2. Maintenance of Air Filter
Maintenance of air filters can be divided into cleaning and replacement. Usually, the air filter must be cleaned and maintained after driving 7500-8000km. Of course, the maintenance interval should be shortened correspondingly in areas with high dust level.
