Turbo on a Non-Turbo 82 Diesel Wagon? 200

You just replace the element as you would with the paper type, except instead or throwing it away , you just clean it and re-oil it about every 25000 miles
The Amsoil filter runs approxamately $28.85 after shipping.
Email me for more info wolfwaa@conwaycorp.net

The intake tube on the filter box is smaller than the diameter of the intake manifold for a reason... part of the intake air is calculated to come from blow-by gasses through the breather tube. If you increase the diameter of the filter box tube , the intake air will come from the path of least resistance( fresh air ) and the engine will not properly scavenge the blowby gasses from the crancase, leading to increased crankcase pressure( i.e. leaking seals and increased oil consumption etc.)

Best to leave the factory air box in place and go with the good filter
