Shop parts for a 2009 Husqvarna TE310 Dirt Bike.
Maintaining the air filter on your 2009 Husqvarna TE310 is essential for peak performance, engine longevity, and maximizing airflow while protecting against dust and debris. The TE310 uses a dual-stage foam air filter which offers outstanding dust trapping capability – specifically designed for tough off-road environments to match the high-revving nature of Husqvarna's 310cc engine.
Unique Features of the 2009 Husqvarna TE310:
- High-performance, two-stage foam air filter (commonly 45/65 PPI dual-layer) for superior filtration and airflow
- Direct fit in factory airbox for easy installation
- Quick-access airbox lid enables expedited maintenance on the trail or in the garage
- Engine's fuel injection system is sensitive to dirt – keeping the filter clean is vital for smooth running
- If fitted with aftermarket exhaust or tuned, regular filter care becomes even more critical
Proprietary MotoSport Air Filter Cleaning Guide:
-
Removal:
- Switch off the ignition – safety first.
- Unclip or unscrew the airbox cover beneath the seat.
- Carefully slide out the filter. Avoid knocking loose dirt into the intake.
-
Initial Inspection:
- Check for tears, loose seams, or excessive wear. Replace immediately if damaged.
- Tap the filter gently to shake off loose dust before further cleaning.
-
Cleaning:
- Use approved foam air filter cleaner only — solvents or gasoline degrade filter foam and reduce engine protection.
- Rinse the filter gently in the cleaner, squeezing (not twisting) until dirt is removed. Repeat with clean water.
-
Drying:
- Air dry thoroughly – avoid heat sources.
-
Oiling:
- Apply specific foam air filter oil. Massage into every surface.
- Make sure the filter is entirely and evenly coated but not dripping.
-
Reinstallation:
- Check airbox for residual dirt; clean if necessary.
- Fit the filter snugly. Confirm the airbox cover is properly secured.
Replacement Guide:
Replace your TE310 air filter annually under light use, or after heavy dust exposure. Always inspect after every major ride – if you find tears, heavy soiling, or signs of deteriorated foam, install a new filter.
Recommended filter types for the TE310 include OEM-style dual-stage foam options like Tusk (45/65 PPI) and Hiflofiltro for reliability and longevity.
MotoSport Owner's Note for the TE310: Always confirm the air filter fits the 2009 TE310's factory air box – improper fit risks unfiltered air entering the engine.
For best results, keep a spare filter ready; regular swaps mean less downtime.
Avoid riding with a dry or over-oiled filter, as either can impact engine performance and cause premature wear.
Routine filter care is the single most important preventative maintenance step for TE310 reliability and throttle response.
