changing air filter

[frank]

I have a 2005 georgetown xl,37 foot motorhome. it is on a 2006 ford chasis. my question is , how do you get the housing off ,so the air filter can be changed. I cannot get the top of the housing up more than an inch, is there a special way this has to be done.??? thanks

There is at least 3 air filters on your unit....maybe more! PLEASE be more specific as to WHICH air filter? Randy

the air filter is for the engine,which is 6.8L 3-valve triton(415CID)V10 . the year is 2006.hope that helps?? frank

Yes definitely a pain, especially in the lower back area, but you need to loosen the hose clamp so it pulls free. It should then come forward so it clears the housing at the back.

I will loosen clamp and give it a try, thank you all very much. frank
