It is time to change the air filter, TJ 2001, Auto, 6 Cyl, 4L, Export, RWD. Rockauto offers WIX or Denso for $6-8 and a Mopar air filter for $23. Does it matter which one?
Thank you for your help.

Thank youAC-Delco has pulled the #1 spot in a few tests but I'd also run a Wix, Denso, Purolator, Fram, or a Mopar without hesitation.
Just say no to K&N.
I bought 3 of them a couple years ago and they had the same foam seals I remember them having. I have two of them left and they seal fine.Fram made changes to their 4.0 filter a few years ago and it no longer seals in the air box. Unless they've revert back.
16-17 years ago before I knew any better I installed a K&N air filter (for a reason explained below) that a wheeling buddy noticed. He suggested I pull it off and wipe my finger around inside the air tube and inside of the throttle body. I was absolutely shocked/stunned how much gritty dirt there was inside that had gotten past the K&N.Why is the K&N not good to use. I've used them on several vehicles including 3 TJ's and never noticed any problem. Jerry, could you comment on this?

I dunno, that's about when I bought mine.I just took a look at my receipt. I bought some in 2016 that didn't fit they changed the construction between those and the filters I bought previously. Maybe they changed them back?
