Description

Maintenance - The cleaning / replacement interval depends on your driving conditions. We recommend that you inspect your air filter every 5,000 miles by removing the filter cover and examining the pleats. Keeping your filter cover clean and blowing out your dry air filter with compressed air will help extend the life of the primary filter media. Depending on use conditions we recommend replacing the dry filter every 15-30,000 miles or when you notice that the filter pleats are starting to collapse.

Cleaning - Your WCFab air filter is a DRY media filter. IT IS NOT WASHABLE. To clean your filter and help extend the life between replacement intervals, use compressed air to blow off the outside of the dry filter keeping the air nozzle moving and no closer than 6 inches to the media. This can be done while the filter is still in the vehicle. If you would like to blow it out further, remove the filter from the intake and take it to a space away from the vehicle and any openings into the engine and blow compressed air through the filter from the inside out being careful not to concentrate the compressed air in one location in the media.

Hey everybody. This is Ryan Killey over here at W Custom Fab. I am one of the sales and tech support technicians here in the office.
I'm here today to talk with you about the proper time to change your air filter and what you should not let your air filter look like.
As you can see here, I have a brand new clean air filter and an air filter far past the point of replacement. As you can tell here, this air filter is extremely dirty. Not only is there excess amount of dirt and buildup and everything in between each pleat, it's caved in. Now what happens is the more dirt and buildup that there is, the harder that your turbo has to work to suck in air. Therefore, causing this to suck itself in, we recommend replacing it about every 15,000 miles, but I also recommend checking out your air filter about every other fuel fill up.

The Outerwears Pre-filter cover helps prevent excess course material from building up on your air filter.

First thing you're going to look at is the condition of the OT wears cover. If it's covered in a lot of fine material and it just doesn't seem like it can be dusted off, the recommend rinsing it under warm water, no chemicals needed for the cleaning, then you'll want to let it air dry before you install it back on your filter.

When your outerwears cover has lost its shine. After a wash and dry maintenance cleaning, you can perform a quick test to determine whether the cover is due for replacement. If you spray the filter with water and it does not beat, it is time to replace it. The cover should also be replaced if there are any holes or tears. If you choose not to run an Outerwears cover, it will reduce the life of your air filter.

When it comes to the filter, you'll want to check it out about every other fill, like I stated before, and the proper way to actually clean this for a temporary use is to use compressed air on the inside and blow it out. If it gets to a point where blowing it out with compressed air doesn't change the color, it's not getting a lot of the fine material, at that point, it is time to replace the filter. You do not want to have your filter end up like this because you are suffocating your turbo. There you have it. There's the details to take care of your wc, fab filter, and OT Wears cover. Feel free to comment below if you had any further questions. Once again, thank you for watching. I'm Ryan Killey.
