Cleaning your air filter

[Hobbes]

Guys,
Any advice or step by steps on how to clean a BMC filter?

Mines probably done a few miles by now, so thought I'd give it a spring clean in the summer.

What kit would I need?

Ta chaps.

K&N do a kit for about £15 iirc which you can get from halfrauds... alternatively they are ususally available on egay.

Hobbes I have the remains of a BMC cleaning kit on my shed. Half a bottle of cleaning solution and half a bottle of filter oil. Your welcome to have it FOC mate.

I will bring it along to the Hants meet

Nice one. Ta. 8)

Although best to make sure that its the right cleaning kit for your filter type. Just in case. Maybe a cotton cleaning kit will not be suited for a foam filter.

If you understand that :? :lol:

I got mine for my AEM so I am sure it will e fine. Gonna clean it next time I have the bumper off when Hobbes pops round for me to show him how to mesh his car. Infact Hobbes give me a shout mate and we can sort out a time to do the mesh

By the way I assume you have to remove everything, clean it, then put it back together again! And WTF is "Filter oil!"

It goes on the outside of the filter to grab and stop all the crap getting through! I think.. :wink:
