Im currently running a Blitz SUS LM air filter and was just wondering if its cleanable? Its not dirty yet but I was just wondering. Maybe using the K&N recharge kit or something?

the cleaning spray u can use to loosen the dirt. the oil i wouldnt use or use very slightly if those blitz dont come preoiled originally.

idk if that one is cleanable... but ive definitely cleaned other ones that ive had. I would say its fine to clean as long as you dont scrub really hard and damage the filtering element.

If its paper, its probaby not designed to be cleaned.. its hard to explain but you should be able to tell by what the element is made of as to whether or not its cleanable. -If it looks like water would turn it into mush, its not cleanable.

I don't do any more than this, even with my K&N.

One advantage of carbs: you don't have to worry about messing up electronic sensors.
