BMC Performance Air Filter | Porsche 911 2.7 & 3.0 SC / Carrera K-Jetronic 1974-1983 | Sold Each
BMC FB812/01 Replacement Air Filter drops into the original airbox on a K-Jetronic 911 and replaces the paper element for good. No trimming, no adapters, no modification — it is shaped to the factory box and sealed by a full-moulded rubber frame.
BMC is the oiled-cotton option, made in Italy. Multi-layered cotton gauze soaked in low-viscosity oil, wrapped in an epoxy-coated alloy mesh that resists petrol fumes and humidity. BMC rates the media at 7 microns against roughly 10 for OEM paper — finer filtration and higher flow at the same time. It arrives pre-oiled and is cleaned and re-oiled with a BMC regeneration kit rather than thrown away. Go easy on the oil at service time; over-oiling an element is the one way to get filter oil somewhere it does not belong.
Key Benefits:
- Higher airflow than the original paper filter, with finer filtration
- Traps particles down to 7 microns — OEM paper is rated around 10
- Multi-layered cotton gauze in epoxy-coated alloy mesh, supplied pre-oiled
- Full Moulding construction — one-piece red rubber frame with no welded joints to split
- Washable and regenerable with a BMC cleaning kit — a service item, not a consumable
- Direct fit in the standard airbox on the impact-bumper 911
