A dirty air filter will rob your Mustang’s engine of power. Symptoms of a dirty air filter can include rough idling, decreased acceleration, and poor fuel economy. Mustang air filter cleaning kits will help restore your air filter and your engine’s power.

Air filters help maintain your engine performance by trapping harmful contaminants such as smog, pollen, and dust. Cleaning solutions dissolve dirt and grime buildup along with any old filter oil.

Most air filter cleaning kits come with a can of cleaner and a can of filter oil. Oils and lubricants work with certain air filters to help trap impurities. Not all air filters need oil, so be sure to check yours before purchasing a kit. Depending on the color of your air filter, you can buy a kit with red or blue oil.

K&N, Airaid, and Edelbrock all offer cleaning kits for their filters. You can clean your filter a few times before purchasing a replacement. Some reusable air filters are also good for the life of the car. Just be sure to do proper maintenance. It’s a good idea to check your air filter with every oil change to see if it needs cleaning.
