RE-Amemiya Filter Clean or Replace

[Crazy Eddie]

Hi Guys,

Going to servive my car next weekend and the RE-Amemiya filter is probably quite dirty. My questions are:
1. Can you clean these and if so what is best way to do it?

2. Should I buy a replacement filter?

3. Should I get a better induction kit or are these up to the job?

Your help is, as always, gratefully received.

Cheers
Eddie

Definitely clean it mate, K&N do a filter cleaning kit which you could use to clean it, I would soak it for a while and squeeze the sponge in all different places to ensure the dirt/dust comes out.

You\'ll be amazed at how quickly it turns the water mucky !!!!

Cheers guys :Thumbs-up . So it is a good enough kit not to replace then?

Hi Eddie

Get the showrer running put shower head in the hole the pipe would attach to and watch the muck come out.
Then give it a good clean with the K&N, my apexi\'s came up a treat.

Cheers for help guys soaking at the moment and omg it must have been restricting as the crud that is coming out of it is amazing :eek
Should i put some oil or something to prevent as much grime sticking again if so what would do ie WD40 or am I best buying propper stuff?
Thanks again

Ok guys clean (well as much as I can)
Is the oil idea a good one or not? Or would engine oil be better or just leave it clean and dry?
Thank you
Eddie
