Cleaning kit arrived for the ITG Maxogen this week, so made a start last night.
Filter looked a little dirty:
So stripped it down to start to remove old dirt and old, then clean and re-oil:
Few bolts and filter was out the housing:
Previous owner just got back from track day...is this a leaf from the Nurburgring?!
Sprayed the filter with the cleaner and rinsed off with some warm water:
Mucky!:
Starting to look better:
So left the filter to dry and moved onto cleaning up the housing:
Washed out the inside and rinsed, washed and polished the outer. Mmmm shiny carbon!:
Whilst I had time for the filter to dry I gave the bolts a tidy up:
Before:
One done:
Plus cleaned the outlet pipe:
Left the filter indoors overnight:
Will re-oil tonight and hopefully fit over the weekend.
