this is a simple enought topic, i cant find it in usual stores, unless im not lookign hard enough

but i (believe) i have the simple k&n air filter,,, (you know the one that gives you up to '25' horses...lol)

and youre supposed to use the 'recharger' kit to clean it,, is this necessary? and if so, wehre can i find it other than ordering it out of magazines?

or if i dont need it, is it just a spray gently and clean thing...

thanks, i havent cleaned that bish yet and im pretty sure it needs it, lol, thats sad

The filter oil that comes in the kit is VITAL to apply after cleaning the filter out. I'm not sure if any other kinda oil can be substitute for "genuine" K&N oil.

Check any speed shop or autoparts store.. shouldn't be tuff to find

huh...*scratches head.. im glad i posted this instead of just cleaning it out...

i guess i'll just search harder, 50resto's magazine wants like 8 bucks, maybe it was more, but they watn a shload for shipping on everything everywhere..

thanks man.

Any parts store that sells K&N filters will have the recharger kits. Go easy and light on reapplying the red oil to the cotton filter element. An over oiled K&N is the subject of a Ford bulletin that links it to intake contamination. End result: replace the MAF and upper O2 sensors. Pep Boys also carries it.

My K&N FIPK CAI has a huge filter and it says that you may not every have to clean it because it has such a large surface area. Does this sound right to you?

Every NAPA Auto Parts store that I have been to carries it.
