A panel filter element having pleated filter paper media and precut gasket made of polyester felt is mounted in a tray inserted into the air intake housing of an internal combustion engine, wherein the air intake housing is made of NYLON(R) material. By having a peripheral gasket made of polyester felt, the gasket does not adhere to portions of the housing and tray. This allows the panel filter element to be easily removed from the housing. This is an improvement over polyurethane gaskets which adhere to the NYLON(R) of the housing when NYLON(R) and polyurethane are exposed to engine heat.
