Abstract:
Systems and methods for detecting a clogged intake air filter in a turbocharged engine system are provided. In one example a method for an engine coupled to an air filter and to a fuel tank includes indicating air filter clogging responsive to a measured fuel tank pressure during boosted engine operation. In this way, clogging of the air filter may be determined using existing engine system components.
