I had a K&N 2 trucks ago- 2002 Silverado. I talked to a buddy and he said a mechanic friend told him- Get that thing outta there! Yes it increases air flow and mileage but it also can let microscopic particulates thru and into the intake and fuel injection systems. I dunno, but to me, the negligible performance and mileage increase aren’t worth the risk. I just change my standard filters every 15,000 miles, with a good Fram or Wix filter. They’ve always worked fine
I already knew where it’s located and how to change it- I was mostly after the nut driver size and you covered that too , 5/16-perfect- so I don’t have to make trips back to the tool box to find the right one. Thanks!
Well done concise instructional video. Thanks for no weird intro graphics and music. BTW, I make it a point to always use GM replacement parts on my Chevy trucks. It's worth the few extra dollars.
Sure, using impacts have their place, but for 4 small screws into plastic just use a hand tool. Impacting from start to hammer time thru plastic will bite you one day. Take that to the bank, especially if it belongs to you.
Thanks for the video, i can go back to it when I change the filter this evening...

Had a '93 Silverado that I put a K&N filter in it. Throttle body would suck the oil out of the filter. Went back to a regular filter

Old air filter looked pretty clean.
Got me a k&n filter today. Going to throw it in my silverado tomorrow. Man I hope I don't drop them screws while taking it off.
Can you clean it with water and put it back in?? Or do you just need to buy a new one
Thanks for the video.
Other videos have one removing the sensor setup and loosening the tightening screw. You just brush ignore it. Thanks much easier.

Let him learn from his mistakes
Thanks for the video, it was helpful!
Ok great job now bring my impact drive back I wondered where that went.
GREAT VIDEO!
I think you watch Eric O!!!
Millennials need to post a video of changing an air filter!! W O W S E R
If it’s your first time doing it, and you wanna do it right, wouldn’t you want some degree of guidance? Everyone had to learn from someone, right!?
First time for everyone. At least they are doing it themselves
Don’t entertain this clown
So why did you watch the video? Hypocrite
