Detailed Description

Pronto PA3138 is an engine air filter for select GM compact and midsize cars from the 1980s. Its round shape and listed dimensions support proper fitment in the factory air cleaner assembly, while the cellulose media provides standard filtration for routine engine air intake service. This part cross-references Gates 22030 for the same application.

Use PA3138 when servicing a Buick Century or Skylark, Chevrolet Citation, Celebrity, or Citation II, Oldsmobile Omega or Cutlass Ciera, or Pontiac Phoenix or 6000. The Pronto PA3138 is also referenced by multiple aftermarket part numbers for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Restricted airflow from a dirty or clogged engine air filter
• Dust and debris entering the intake system
• Reduced filtration performance during routine maintenance
• Incorrect filter size for the specified air cleaner housing
• Service replacement needs on older Buick, Chevrolet, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the air cleaner housing dimensions and compare them to the listed 10.63 x 10.63 x 2.13 in. filter size before installation. Replace the filter during scheduled maintenance and inspect the air box for dirt or debris before closing the housing. Confirm vehicle application by year, make, and model for Buick Century, Chevrolet Celebrity, and Pontiac 6000 fitment.

Quality Assurance

Pronto identifies PA3138 as a regular-grade engine air filter with cellulose media and a non-reusable design for the listed applications. Fitment data is provided for 1980-1986 Buick, Chevrolet, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac models, including Buick Century, Chevrolet Citation, and Pontiac Phoenix.
