Whether its a "C" or a four-wheel drive "K" model, a Chevy Truck has always been rugged, hardworking and dependable, ready for the toughest jobs - as long as preventive maintenance is performed on schedule in accordance with factory instructions. In fact, the performance of a Chevy Truck can really go downhill for want of an easily replaced part costing well under $20. What I'm talking about, of course is the Chevy Truck Air Filter.

It's an important part of the fuel system, because fuel needs oxygen in order to burn. Without the air filter, dirt, dust and other particles will clog the entire system in short order.

A dirty air filter can still protect your engine from such contamination, but the engine will eventually suffocate - literally "choke" - because the fuel system will not be able to get enough air. A mixture that is too "rich" - in which there is too much fuel and not enough air - will result, raising the engine idle speed and causing a greater rate of fuel consumption. (This, in fact was the purpose of the old "choke" knob, since an engine that was cold or running under a load required more fuel.) Eventually, this results in excess carbon deposits that build up on the heads and interfere with valve operation. This can lead to to additional headaches, as well. An dirty Chevy Truck Air Filter should be replaced with every oil change, or every three thousand miles.
