April 28, 2024

Here's what goes into the determination of when to change the filter: First, your vehicle owner's manual will have a recommendation of when the filter should be replaced.
So between your owner's manual and your Mustang technician's inspection there's really no guesswork involved for Mustang drivers.
Now, most air filters purchased in Mustang don't cost a lot to replace. It's just that Oklahoma people hate getting caught with an unexpected expense. On the plus side, though, changing a dirty air filter at Mustang Automotive can often save enough on gas to pay for itself before your next oil change in Mustang.
Think about a dirty furnace filter in your Mustang home. When it's all clogged up, enough clean air can't get through. In your vehicle, that means that your engine can't get as much air as it needs to burn the fuel efficiently. So it makes do with less air and has to use more gas to move your vehicle around Mustang roads.
Your vehicle actually needs about 12,000 times more air than fuel to run. Engine air filters don't cost much in Mustang at Mustang Automotive. When it's time to change yours, just get it done. You'll get better fuel economy, have better performance and protect your vehicle engine.
