Symptoms include a lack of power under acceleration and resticted air filter lamp illumination. Part number 8C34-19A413-AA. Broadcast Message 0284, 7323.

How does snow blowing in from the grill make it all the way back to the air filter which is located in front of the passenger side of the firewall (am I correct on this location?)? I understand that the grill cover will help the diesel engine run more efficiently during the cold days of winter by keeping temps up, but the snow in the air filter warnings just don't make any sense to me???
