The GMC Sonoma Air Filter Box protects the engine by filtering incoming air to only let clean oxygen into the combustion chambers. Positioned between the grille and the intake manifold, the Air Filter Box seals a paper or synthetic filter element in a stout plastic housing that prevents dust, sand, and stray leaves stirred up on every drive. Air enters through a snorkel and swirls around in the Air Filter Box, then passes through the filter media where abrasive particles cannot scar pistons, rings, or cylinder walls. In early Sonoma models, the square two-piece Air Filter Box applied metal clips to hold the lid in place, while later GMC compact pickups changed to a rounded latch style Air Filter Box that uses molded tabs for faster access when changing the air filter. Despite the dissimilar forms, both Air Filter Boxes allow the same high volume of air up to 10,000 gallons per gallon of fuel burned to keep oils clean and prevent bypassing clogged oil filters that could fill the motor with gritty lubricant. This simple but important housing makes up a first line of defense for every GMC Sonoma on the road, helping the sturdy compact truck provide consistent power and long engine life.
