Ford Explorer Sport Trac Air Filter Housing

The Air Filter Housing, also known as an air box, protects the filter in the Ford Explorer Sport Trac and helps prevent contaminants from entering the engine. The box must be sealed well to ensure that the incoming air is filtered before reaching the combustion chamber. For every generation, the Air Filter Housing directs outside air through a pleated paper element, which traps dust, sand, and leaves so that only clean oxygen gets to the intake. Earlier models of the Explorer Sport Trac made use of a straightforward plastic Air Filter Housing that unclipped for easy filter changes. The Ford pickup's later versions received a larger Air Filter Housing that featured built-in resonator tubes to muffle intake noise, producing the same volume of purified air. Despite alterations made to the shapes to make them fit in the newer engine bays, the main aim for all Ford versions of the Explorer Sport Trac remained the same, which is to protect the engine parts and deliver clean air in all driving conditions. The Explorer Sport Trac owners also love the quieter intake tone. The Air Filter Housing has well-designed seals to protect the element from becoming wet due to puddle splashes, plus it is located conveniently for a quick inspection or replacement on a Ford owner's part.
