Well, today I figured I would clean out my air filter, seeing I went to Medford and back, and seemingly drove everywhere else too without cleaning it...I figured it was time.

When I pulled it off, it was encrusted with road grime, and took a bottle of the K&N cleaner to get most of the gunk off. Under that was a whole assortment of bugs....ugh. ( Pardon the phrase ) They were dropping like flies off the filter....If it weren't so amusing, well, I'm sure it would have been something else.

Anyway, what I really want to know is; what are the most interesting things you've found in your air filter? Anything???

I wish MY filter would pick up some money, it's no fun being broke.

I knew a guy that had a nest of field mice living in his air cleaner. He had a 62 Bonneville that spent the better part of the last few decades sitting in a field by Grand Coulee Dam. It was kinda cool.

that would be awesome, then your filter would pay for itself...

A nest of field mice??? I gotta check my air filter now, the car been sitting for over 10 months now... Maybe Ill find some cool stuff in there.

gross stuff

I've found some pretty bizarre creatures plastered against my filter. mostly locust-looking grasshoppers and such, but some were pretty gnarly looking.

 

[QuadCam_GT]

where do you people live, I have never found anything on my filter...

Mostly CA - the greatest density of gnarly looking creatures in the states....and a lot of them are humans

best part is dan, i haven't had much problem cleaning out the bad particles from the filter.

the flipside is that the transients have a habit of getting stuck in my grille. probably why one of my pilot's have busted.
