Heavy ashfall and air filters - 04/11/03 02:23 AM

Wildfires in SoCal produced heavy ashfall that required the use of face masks or even respirators. Did anyone check your airfilters and microfilters to see how dirty and clogged they got over the past week?

When the Colorado Fires hit last year I could watch the glow from my deck and sometimes flames with binoculars.

Even with the smoke and the proximity I just waited till after they were out to change the micro and the Engine filter as usual.

Day Two Before it came our way.


Little close


Good luck

[Freak] For < $30 I would rather have the dirt in the filter than in my truck!
