Automobile Air Filters

The picture above is not very clear but you are looking at the inside of the automobile airfilter box with the filter removed. It is loaded with acorns. This is another air filter lens and fortunately this vehicle had no real damage as compared to the one in my "what's in your cars airfilter" lens. You may want to read this lens. The car came to the shop with the "check engine" light on. The code was P0101 mass airflow problem. At idle the car ran fine (all the nuts just rested at the bottom of the air chamber), Revved to 1500 rpm it would sound like a popcorn maker (the nuts where flying all over in the air chamber) and at highway speeds the engine would hold back (the nuts all jammed in the air intake and blocked the mass airflow sensor).
This is just another reason to do normal maintenance and check the air filter on a regular basis more often in rural and wooded areas.
