Abstract
An air cleaner for a vehicular engine includes a pre-filter which receives air flow containing particulates and a primary filter which receives the air from the pre-filter. The pre-filter removes a first proportion of particulates from the air, and the primary filter removes a second proportion of particulates from the air. The pre-filter is separately serviceable from the primary filter.
