About how long should you change your filter? Months or miles?

Or can you just clean it?











On a side note, is the General Section still being moderated? My thread just appeared right away.

 

clean it...as long as its one you can clean

 

clean it...as long as its one you can clean

 

how can you tell it it's one?

I have the Injen one

 

K&N last forever
dryflow just needs to be beaten a bit, then hosed off, and let it dry before reinstalling
oiled one needs to be cleaned off, then oiled (slightly)
AEM intakes i believe are the same deal

 

igotz the k&n i just rense, dry install

 

You do know that K&N filters are designed to be oiled to work properly?!?!

 

really, i havent noticed any difference between when i cleaned it and after using it. its been several thousand miles since its been done. out of curiosity what type of oil

 

k&n sells a cleaning kit for the filters which includes the oil

 

never mind i checked K&N website, ill re oil it but havent had any problems/loss of power at all

 

k and n oil... its 10 bucks for cleaner kit at autozone or pepboys
comes with the cleaner and a bottle of the oil.

 

some cleaners come with the squeeze spray oil and others come with the aerosol can of oil....

not just k&n sells this kit but you can get any one of the other cleaning kits with oil from kragen or autozone or watever...they usually run like 20 bucks or so

alright 10 or 20 bucks watever

 

im gonna do it

 

 

K&N sells dryflow filters as well though..dont they? they dont only have oiled filters

 

so for Injen I have to oil my filter up a lil?
