Yeah, I'll get a new one then, just didn't know if it was still good or if it was finished. Cheers.

Looks pretty good to me. I'd blow it out while I had it off and keep running it for another year at least. Look at it again in the spring.

service interval is 11,000 miles. if you can see light threw it it's fine. just give it a shake out. i tend to whack the edges off a wheeliebin or some other corner.

unless its covered in oil and is black as night then all is fine.

i have seen air filters that have needed a bag under it to take it out, they were that full.

You shouldn't let them get to that point though.
