At every 3 months, both air and cabin filters are removed and blown through using a high pressure air line. Keeps the cabin fresh and the engine smooth.
off topic here, so i put bad gas in out of a gas can! ya it was dumb, anyhow car was misfiring and flashing engine light was on, had it towed it was black smoke n stalling shuddering too, he emptied out the tank blew the tank out added new fuel and replaced the plugs, car ran but under heavy acceleration id deal with spark knock! here we are 2 months later it happened again, ive ran probably 10 tanks of good fuel through, but it pulled the black smoke shuddering flashing check engine again, so back in shop, car runs fine but if i accelerate heavy it breaks down. what are ya thinking? appreciate a response
Hi there, You many need to change the cabin air filter (also known as Pollen Air filter) frequently. The engine air filter is designed to prevent dirt, dust, and other contaminants from entering the engine's intake system. Clean air is crucial for the engine's combustion process, as it ensures the right air-fuel mixture for efficient performance.
Hi, A severely clogged air filter can potentially cause a car to turn off shortly after starting, though it's a less common cause for such a symptom. The air filter is crucial for providing clean air to the engine; when it's extremely dirty, it can restrict the airflow. This restriction might lead the engine to receive an improper air-fuel mixture, making it difficult for the engine to run properly, especially just after starting when the engine might be more susceptible to performance issues. However, if a car turns off immediately after starting, other issues are often more likely to be the cause. These can include problems with the fuel system (like a failing fuel pump or dirty fuel injectors), issues with the ignition system (such as faulty spark plugs or ignition coils), or even electronic problems like sensor malfunctions.
Hi, Yes, a dirty engine air filter can restrict airflow to the engine, causing the air-fuel mixture to become richer than normal. When there's insufficient air, the oxygen sensors detect a rich condition, and this can trigger a rich code. The engine control unit (ECU) may attempt to compensate for the restricted airflow by adjusting fuel delivery, leading to a persistent rich condition if the air filter is excessively dirty. Replacing the air filter can often resolve this issue.

Can you make your call stall out ?
Have you ever changed a boot switch cannot find any videos on it
I've bought an old Toyota Yaris, and I checked and the car didn't have an filter in at all.
I have put one in now.
Thanks for sharing this. Can it trigger a P0420 code?
No that’s your catalytic converter.
No ive had that code for a while with o2 sensors replaced sensors and still had the p0420 and I’ve replaced the cat and check engine light went off
Can it cause the engine to overheat?
Yup.
Really???@@royalautodetailing5092
No
Maybe
Yes, no, maybe. I don’t know.
I do have dry eyes. Will the dirty air filter gets my eyes to act up?

Can it cause the car to switch off immediately after you put ut on??Thx
Yes

Can it trigger P0122 code?
Yes
Great video.
Thank you.
I appreciate your kind words!!
