Can a car run without an air filter?
1 Answers
No, a car cannot run without an air filter. Here are the relevant explanations: Function: During operation, the engine needs to intake a large amount of air. If the air is not filtered, the suspended dust particles in the air will be drawn into the cylinders, accelerating the wear of the piston group and cylinders. Purpose: Without an air conditioning filter to purify the air, once these particles enter the cabin, they not only contaminate the car's air conditioning system and reduce the performance of the cooling system, but also pose health risks. Inhaling dust and harmful gases can cause allergic reactions, lung damage, irritation from ozone exposure leading to mood disturbances, and unpleasant odors, all of which compromise driving safety.
