Air Filter--Whodathunkit?
I'm a very careful mechanic who constantly looks for things
that can cause a malfunction or problem and fixes them first, to prevent problems in operation. I'm taking a trip to Rhode Island in a few weeks and have been going over my service records. I just replaced the air filter in my 3208 NA Cat about 11,000 miles ago, so it should still be OK. Removed and inspected it and YIKES! I can barely see light through it. I got a new one and I can clearly see light though it and, comparing the 2, my old one is really dirty. Ick. Just a reminder, don't go by miles alone on air filters. Remove and inspect them regularly. They're a key to performance, mileage and engine longevity. I haven't been driving in conditions that appeared to be that dusty. I'm changing the fuel filters, too. ;o) George Witt 81 FC 35 Lincoln, Nebraska--Huskers Host of the August 7 Lincoln, Nebraska Parking Lot Rally. |
