The Amsoil EA Air filters was created with newer technology to help the way air filters collect dust and get air flow compared to older styles.  Study’s have shown that the EA air filters are 5 times more efficient in collecting dust and also can be used for either 4 years of 100,000 miles. The reason for the better air flow is the use of Nanofibers compared to the traditional Cellulose Fibers that most air filters are made with.  The difference is the space between the fibers in which the Celle lose have bigger gaps which in turns allows more dust and particles to pass through.

When cleaning the EA Air filters you want to clean it every 25,000 miles or every year.  You would want to remove the the filter and clean it with a vacuum to get all the dust off.  The biggest difference between more traditional air filters and these new EA from Amsoil is the ability to hold more dust and dirt which is what the amsoil air filter is used for.  Since you can hold up to 2.5 times more dirt this means your car will run smoother and better.  Like all things in life as new technology comes out it always has ways to improve the efficiency or things we use everyday.

AMSOIL also offers several Twin Air air filters cleaning and oiling products.

Liquid Power Filter Oil starts thin for a deep, even penetration, then dries to an even coating. This high-tack shield traps dirt, grit and dust.

Liquid Bio Power biodegradable air filter oil is the first biodegradable air filter oil that works in all riding conditions. Liquid Bio Power prevents dirt, dust and even water from entering carburetors. Its alcohol base allows easy, even penetration, then dissipates quickly to form a super sticky, dirt-grabbing shield.

Liquid Dirt Remover is formulated to quickly cut through Liquid Power, loosen the dirt and flush filters clean. It will not harden or damage filter foam.

Liquid Bio Dirt Remover is a biodegradable air filter cleaner. It can be used with a washing  machine or  when washing by hand in a bucket. Liquid Bio Dirt Remover is a granular water-soluble cleaner that can go right down the drain without clogging or harming the environment.

Spray Contact Cleaner is designed to clean the air box and surrounding areas. It quickly and effectively removes excess dirt and grime.

Proper air flow is vital to maximize performance and engine life. Air is required to release the energy from the fuel being used. It takes 1,200 cubic feet of air to combust one gallon of gasoline. Inadequate air flow can cause serious loss of power, poor performance and excessive fuel consumption. Tests show that AMSOIL Ea Air Filters have more than three times the air flow of filters that use cellulose media alone.

A filter’s ability to contain trapped contaminants determines how well an engine will run and long the filter will remain effective. If the capacity is too low , the filter will have to be replaced constantly. When the filter is full, air cannot pass through at the rate necessary for proper engine performance.

AMSOIL Ea Air Filters hold up to 2.5 times more contaminants than cellulose air filters. Since the nanofibers in the media are so small there are more pores per square inch, allowing for higher dirt-holding capacity and lower pressure drop when compared to cellulose filter media alone. Thinner media fibers produce more uniform pore size distribution, improve the filter’s overall quality and ability to capture and retain particles. Testing shows that Ea Air Filters hold 15 times more contaminants than wet gauze-type filter. The capacity is so great, in fact, that the new AMSOIL Ea Air Filters remain effective for a full 25,000 miles/ one-year motor oil drain interval, adding even more convenience for motorists by consolidating routine maintenance.

An engine needs air in order for combustion to occur, but the air drawn in through the induction system is loaded with contaminants. There are over 400 tons of suspended dirt and other contaminants in a cubic mile of air over a typical city. The concentration can be even higher in rural areas where there is frequent travel on unpaved roads.The dirt and contaminants drawn into an engine are the leading cause of engine wear.

The function of the air filter is to trap and hold these wear-causing contaminants without restricting air flow. As the filter traps more and more contaminants, air flow becomes restricted, smothering the engine and diminishing performance. The more wear-causing contaminants a filtration media traps and the more contaminants the filtration media holds, while still allowing optimum air flow, the better the filtration media is.

The nanofiber technology used in AMSOIL Ea Filters surpasses all other technology in efficiency, capacity and service life. With AMSOIL Ea Filter, dust and submicron particles remain on the surface and are trapped on top of the nanofibers, preventing particles from lodging in the filter media depth. This produces higher efficiency and higher capacity which extends engine and filter life and reduces engine wear.

AMSOIL Ea Air Filters represent a major breakthrough in filtration technology. For the first time, revolutionary nanofiber technology is available to the auto/light truck market.

Nanofiber technology has been used exclusively in heavy-duty applications, including the US ARMY Abrams M1 tank. AMSOIL has brought this technology to the auto/light truck market. AMSOIL Ea Air Filters provide the absolute best filtration for AMSOIL customers and with an unmatched four-year/100,000-mile guarantee, AMSOIL Ea Air Filters save money!

Nanofiber is a phrase generally referring to a fiber with a diameter less than one micron. Cellulose fibers on the other hand, are larger than nanofibers and have larger spaces between the fibers,causing contaminants to load in the depth of the media and plugthe airflow path, resulting in higher restriction and less capacity. AMSOIL Ea Air Filters incorporate a specially constructed cellulose media with synthetic nanofibers applied to the surface. Dust and submicron particles are trapped on the nanofiber surface, preventing them from lodging in the filter media depth.

Cleaning is done by using light air pressure, or a shop vacuum.
