How Do Oil Filters Work?
If you're wondering how oil filters work, there are a couple of important parts that work together in cleaning your engine oil as it is used.
- Tapper plate injects contaminated oil into cylindrical oil filter.
- The contaminated oil makes its way through a mesh filter.
- As oil passes, the contaminants are trapped within the mesh filter (this is why it needs to be changed regularly).
- When you shut your vehicle off, an anti-drain back valve shuts so no dirty oil makes its way into your engine while not being operated.
How Often Do I Replace My Oil Filter?
Best practice is to replace your oil filter any time you get a regularly scheduled oil change, so make sure you stay on top of those as well! The expert Kia technicians at DARCARS Kia of Temple Hills are ready to help!
