How often should the air filter of the Leiling be replaced?
1 Answers
According to the maintenance manual of the Leiling, the air filter should generally be replaced every 40,000 kilometers or during every other maintenance service. If the driving environment is poor, it is recommended to clean the air filter every 5,000 kilometers to reduce the buildup of throttle sludge. The location of the car's air filter element varies depending on the intake form and the engine structure. It is usually located in the air filter on the engine intake pipe. There are two types of air filters in cars: dry and wet. Dry filters are made of paper or organic materials, while wet filters are made of metal mesh. The function of the air filter is to filter out particulate impurities in the air, ensuring that sufficient clean air enters the cylinders and preventing floating dust from being sucked into the engine, which could accelerate the wear of the piston group and cylinders. Air filter: It is a type of filter, also known as an air filter cartridge, air cleaner, or style. It is mainly used in engineering vehicles, cars, agricultural vehicles, laboratories, sterile operating rooms, and various precision operating rooms as an air filter. During operation, the engine sucks in a large amount of air. If the air is not filtered, the floating dust in the air will be sucked into the cylinders, accelerating the wear of the piston group and cylinders. Larger particles entering between the piston and cylinder can cause severe cylinder scoring, which is particularly serious in dry and sandy working environments. The air cleaner is installed in front of the carburetor or intake pipe to filter out dust and sand from the air, ensuring that sufficient and clean air enters the cylinders. Dirty air cleaner: Using a dirty air cleaner while driving can cause insufficient engine intake, incomplete fuel combustion, leading to unstable engine operation, reduced power, and increased fuel consumption. Therefore, the air cleaner must be kept clean. The car air cleaner is a device that removes particulate impurities from the air. It consists of one or several air filter components, and its main function is to filter out harmful impurities in the air before they enter the cylinders to reduce early wear of the cylinders, pistons, piston rings, valves, and valve seats. Therefore, before air enters the cylinders, it must pass through the fine filtration of the air cleaner. Notes about air filters: An air filter that has been in use for some time is more efficient than a new one. This is because the impurities already adsorbed by the air filter help it capture more tiny dust particles. A dirty-looking air filter does not necessarily mean it is no longer functioning properly. The driving time or mileage of the vehicle is only a reference. Whether to replace the filter depends on the actual situation, such as whether it can no longer allow sufficient air to pass through. The air cleaner must ensure that it filters out impurities in the air while allowing enough air to enter the engine.
