I want to replace the engine air filter but can't figure out how to get access to it. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello Duhmel , It is very easy to replace air filters. pop the hood , you will see a big silver V8 cover , grab the cover on both sides toward the back near fire wall and pull up. Then slide the cover toward the radiator. You will see 2 black boxes each identical. There are clips on the front and back of the plastic boxs . pop the clips and the tops should open.
there is one plastic tab on each box on the inner side of each box , lift the tops and slide the top so the tab releases.
Once the new filters are in , put the tops back on starting with inserting inner tabs ,then close top and engage clips.
the V8 cover: you will first slide the front of the cover so the plastic insert seats itself. once you get that in push down on the back of the cover ,,,,,, (When you get the cover off take a good look at the under side ,so you will get a good idea
how it goes together.) Good luck
