FILTER - 3.5L
WARNING
To reduce the risk of vehicle damage
and personal burn injuries, do not
start your engine with the air cleaner
removed and do not remove it while the
engine is running. Note:
Failure to use the correct air filter
element may result in severe engine
damage. The vehicle warranty may be void
for any damage to the engine if the correct
air filter element is not used.
Only use the specified air filter. See
Capacities and Specifications (page
265).
Change the air filter element at the proper
interval.
See Scheduled Maintenance
(page 433). 1. Disconnect the mass air flow sensor
electrical connector and cable from
the air filter cover. 2. Clean the area around the air tube to
air filter cover connection to prevent
debris from entering the system and
then loosen the bolt on the air tube
clamp so the clamp is no longer snug
to the air tube. It is not necessary to
completely remove the clamp. Pull the
air tube off from the air filter cover.
3. Release the clamps that secure the air
filter cover to the air filter housing. 4.
Carefully lift the air filter housing cover.
Remove the air filter element from the
air filter housing.

6. Replace the air filter housing cover. Engage the clamps that secure the air
filter housing cover to the air filter
housing. Be careful not to crimp the
filter element edges between the air
filter housing and cover. Make sure that
the tabs on the edge are correctly
aligned into the slots.
7. Slip the air tube onto the air filter cover
and snugly tighten the bolt on the air
tube clamp, but do not overtighten.
8. Reconnect the mass air flow sensor electrical connector to the outlet tube.
Make sure the locking tab on the
