The New Home Economics

Hope you haven’t forgotten to change or replace your car air filter.  A car air filter should be replaced at regular intervals as recommended by the manufacturer of your vehicle.  About every 3,000 miles; depending on driving conditions.  If you drive on dirt roads (unpaved roads) or experience constant stop-and go traffic, you may need to change your air filter more frequently.

Changing your air filter is simple.  Read your owners’ manual to find the correct type for your vehicle, location of the filter, and how to remove and replace the filter.  Filters can be purchased at discount or auto stores such as Walmart or Auto Zone.   Learning how to change the filter yourself could save you $10 or more.
