DAVE HOLOWATY BRAKE RELINE IF YOU'VE planned on holding off until the nice weather to open your car’s hood and put in a clean air filter, you may not want to wait that long. According to Car Care Council of the Automotive Industries Association of Canada, you could aiready be wasting gas and polluting the air. Vehicle checks have disclosed that more than one out of three cars are running with air filters dirty enough to be affecting the vehicles’ performance and causing excessively high exhaust emissions. Most cars use up to 14 litres of air per litre of gasoline; that ratio increases to nearly 15/1 on newer cars with fuel injection. When insufficient air is available to the engine the car acts as if the ‘choke’? were on, sometimes spewing black smoke from the tail Pipe. This condition also can cause fouling of spark plugs and damage to the catalytic converter. Most manufacturers rzcommend changing air filters at about 12,000 kilometres. If you drive in dusty areas such as on unpaved roads, the filter should be changed more frequently. Prices, sizes and shapes of air filters vary from vehisle to vehicle and from model year to model year. Changing them is relatively easy on older models. Often it is necessary only to remove a thumb screw at the top of the air filter housing. On many newer models the pro- cedure still is easy, says the Coun- cil, but there are some engines equipped with fuel injection and other components which make the filter less accessible. To cope with various vacuum hoses, ducts, wires and breather lines it may be neces- sary to have a mechanic do the in- stallation.
