Air Filter Element: Description and Operation

Air enters a dry-type engine Air Cleaner (ACL) and travels through a pleated, chemically treated, water-resistant paper air cleaner element to remove
contaminants before entering the engine induction system.

The air cleaner element should be inspected, cleaned, or replaced periodically. The California model air cleaner system has an Intake Air Temperature
sensor (IAT sensor) mounted in the engine air cleaner to monitor inlet air temperature.
