Cleaning air filter

[scottrobinson]

Quick question for you guys, just cleaning up some stuff under the hood and thought id do the air filter, its a k&n cai, i took it off gave it a quick brush then sprayed the cleaner and rinsed it off, now do i need to spray the oil on it or are they a dry filter and dont require oil?

You're probably going to need to clean it more than one time before its totally clean.
But if/when it is clean, wait for it to dry then spray it with the oil.

Spray it lightly DO NOT OVER OIL IT.
Best way is to spay it sparingly, the oil will absorb into the filter and spread on it's own. Let it sit for 20 minutes, then fill in any spots that are still white.

Get a K&N recharge kit, gives you everything you need.

And just incase anybody is wondering, this is what you use on a JMB filter also.
