    We cant afford not too with the rising gas prices!

    With the daily rising gas prices we all need to make sure that the car we are driving is getting the best gas mileage it can get.

    Just a few things that will help you save on gas:

    check you tire pressure - most cars have the p.s.i. rating on the sticker on the driver door jam.

    check your air filter - one of the easiest things to replace on your car. dont have those oil change places rip you off.

    check your spark plugs, cap, and rotor - in some cars the plugs can be hard to get to but even changing out the cap and rotor will help.

    take my advice when changing them yourself for the first time:

    1) unscrew or unclip the cap and leave the wires on and move it to the side
    2) pull or unscrew the old rotor and replace it with the new one
    3) install the new cap
    4) with the old and new cap facing the same way remove and install the wires one at a time

    Doing these minor repairs to your car will help you save money at the pump
    and they will pay for themselfs in just a few months.

    MANN+HUMMEL Filters



    Air filter elements:
    - any shape any size

    The challenge facing the development of air filter elements lies in the installation space prescribed for them, which is often very small and requires flexible geometrical shaping of the elements whilst at the same time meeting stringent requirements for filter performance.
    The new inline filter system from MANN+HUMMEL with its highly compact air filter elements meets these requirements. The compact air filter elements consist of a large number of channels arranged in parallel with one another and alternately enclosed. Inside the air stream enters from the raw air side and is conducted through the filter paper so that it can flow out again through the neighboring open channel on the pure air side.

    Another MANN+HUMMEL innovation is the completely synthetic filter medium Micrograde N. Its distinctive feature, in comparison with conventional cellulose media, is its far higher dirt absorption capacity and a vastly improved filtration performance, which makes it possible to lengthen its service life or to reduce installation space.

    With the aid of MANN+HUMMEL production technology and the outstanding filtration performance of our media, MANN+HUMMEL air filter elements can be adapted efficiently to fit the installation space available in passenger cars and commercial vehicles.

    True to its slogan “Any shape any size” MANN+HUMMEL sells filter elements in various different shapes and sizes including oval-conical, trapezium, or stepped, and even filter elements with a sealed aperture.

    I can save you a lot of money by going directly to the maker of the OEM filter for your European cars. For example 2004 SLK230 OEM air filter list price is $19.50. I sell the same filter for $11.22!

    Metal-free oil filter elements:
    - economical and environmentally friendly

    One particularly environmentally friendly system for the filtration of engine oil is the metal-free filter element from MANN+HUMMEL. It can be fully incinerated and sits in a housing that is firmly fixed to the engine and does not have to be replaced, as it is a “lifetime component”. Only the filter element has to be replaced; it consists of the filter medium and the end disks. This reduction in the replacement parts results in a high level of economy and environmental friendliness.

    The MANN+HUMMEL oil filter media have been specially developed for use in modern engines. Their distinctive feature is their high dirt absorption capacity, filter fineness that is exactly coordinated with the engine requirements, and high resistance to chemicals. The service life of these long-life filter media in the passenger car field has already reached 50,000 km. With the fully synthetic filter media from MANN+HUMMEL even the increasing demands of future generations of engines can be met.

    I can save you a lot of money by going directly to the maker of the OEM filter for your European cars. For example 2004 SLK230 OEM oil filter list price is $10.50. I sell the same filter for $4.29!

    Fuel filter elements:
    - Higher performance by clean fuel

    Modern injection systems are more sensitive than previous versions and are therefore much more demanding regarding fuel filtration.

    The new MANN+HUMMEL filter media, MULTIGRADE F have been developed for diesel and petrol engines and fulfill the highest standards demanded for fuel filter elements. By the multi-layer structure the finest particles are kept off from the sensitive injection equipment. Concerning the particle retention capacity MULTIGRADE F media have 100% higher performance compared with current cellulose media.

    In Diesel fuel applications MULTIGRADE F provides nearly complete water separation. This way corrosion damages are avoided in the injection system. Combined with the high particle retention capacity, MULTIGRADE filter media provide optimal protection of the injection unit. Fuel filter elements for diesel engines are integrated in a modular housing filter system. They are metal- free and can therefore be burned without leaving residue.

    In modern petrol engines life-time filter elements integrated into the tank are coming increasingly into operation. Due to the high particle retention capacity and separation efficiency MULTIGRADE F filter media enable the integration of the filter in the tank units. By integrating the filter into the tank units, the stricter limits on HC emissions for the whole vehicle can be met.

    I can save you a lot of money by going directly to the maker of the OEM filter for your European cars. For example 2004 SLK230 OEM fuel filter list price is $37.00. I sell the same filter for $11.18!
