K & N filters

<< < (3/4) > >>

Range Rover Blues:
Yes dry it in the airing cupboard.  If it gets too hot whilst wet the steam can harm the cottom, but it would have to get very hot.

you can't oil it up untill it's dry, don't put too much oil in it for a start either.

Disco Matt:
Done - it was a slightly different process to the instructions though:

Open housing
Remove filter
Be shocked by tree debris in dirty side of filter, bang on doorstep until roughly a cup-sized quantity has fallen out
Brush out the rest
Spray with cleaner and leave for 10mins
Rinse
Repeat as you can't believe how dirty it still is
Dry in airing cupboard or on boiler
Oil with supplied aerosol
Leave 20mins to check for drips, then wipe oil off filter seal, table, and anything else
Refit
Solve the mystery of why you haven't been getting that Mad Max "blower" sound effect from the snorkel for a while
 :lol:

Bishops Finger:
Fitted K+Ns to several vehicles over the years always with noticable improvements to mid range torque and fuel consumption

Easy to clean kits are/were available from Halfords

Tip keep your old air filter for use when the K&N is being cleaned...

hairyasswelder:
Do you think it would help a V8 breathe abit better with a snorkel and lpg or will they cancel each other out  :-k :-k

Big Rich:
I've used K and N on my land rovers and I would recomend them. Alot better than the paper disposable ones.
