Will Installing a High-Flow Air Filter Affect Engine Lifespan?

[LaAlivia]

Installing a high-flow air filter can impact engine lifespan. An air filter is a type of filtration device. During operation, engines intake large volumes of air. If this air isn't properly filtered, dust particles suspended in the air may enter the cylinders, accelerating wear on piston assemblies and cylinder walls. An engine is a machine that converts other forms of energy into mechanical energy, originally developed in England. It serves both as a power generation device and can refer to the complete machine including the power unit. Engine operation follows a four-stroke cycle: intake stroke, compression stroke, power stroke, and exhaust stroke.
