OEM Ford Air Intake Parts

An air intake or air induction system pulls oxygen into your vehicle's engine through an intake manifold. It's then distributed among engine cylinders. When it mixes with fuel at just the right ratio, your spark plugs ignite the mix. It burns, producing the power your Ford runs on.

How Ford air intakes work is simple. Air first goes through an engine air filter. There, its airborne contaminants are removed. The air then gets regulated, with help from three parts: a mass airflow sensor, an air metering system, and one or more oxygen sensors. Mass airflow sensors measure air movement. Air metering systems feed info to an engine control unit (ECU). Each oxygen sensor monitors exhaust levels. If your engine uses, for instance, a cold air intake, it can pull in cooler and therefore denser air. This can slightly improve power output.

When air intake parts don't work right, they can cause problems. A lit Check Engine light can tell you something is going on, but it's best to look for two more specific signs. They include:

• Your engine revving too fast in neutral and/or when parked
• Your engine idling faster or slower than normal

Check Engine lights suggest more general performance problems. Fast engine rev and irregular idling speed, however, can indicate air intake system failure.
