Pick up the K&N recharger kit and follow the instructions.

I would strongly recommend not putting it in the dishwasher.

 

yea im gettin the kit

 

You could just spray it with the hose and then let it sit in some soapy water (MILD SOAP!!) for 2 mins then spray of whatever's left. once its dry it'll run like brand freakin new.

Make sure it gets oiled afterwards so the element doesnt........rot out, or whatever it does.

Hrmm so thats what was happening to mine. I always wondered why my old filter seemd to get worse and worse after i would wash it so i would wash it some more.. and more. Eventually i tossed it for a new one.

How can you oil it if you dont have the kit? rub motor oil with your fingers?

 

just buy the k&n recharger kit. its like $10 at the autopart store.

 

YOU HAVE TO OIL IT AFTER... if you do not oil it then it wont be effective in stopping smaller particulites such as dust

 

what kind of oil do you guys use?

 

K&N air filter oil...... part #99-0504............... Thats the oil i use

 

calm down everyone, i got the recharger kit... filter is air drying now
