I still had to fight with the inlet tube and hose clamps so that the end of the filter wasn't touching anything. Finally got it last night, i think.

when my c&l filter gets dirty, i go buy a k&n recharge kit. I soak it with the cleaner stick it in my dish washer, it comes out clean as can be. I spray it with a lite coat of oil let it dry reapply till it has a deep rich red color letting me know its done. I usually let it sit over night and or set it in front of a fan to dry. Never had a problem.

Dishwasher? I can not believe you used your DW, lol
Anyway, I heard the new filters don't flow as much air as the older ones did, so you may want to think twice about ordering a new one.


Just playing but seriously it's not that hard to wash and re-oil a filter, a trained monkey could do it!

Yup I have a stainless steel inside and out dishwasher. So I put in the filter soaked with the cleaner poured what was left of the bottle in the bottom and I also added some "purple power" concentrated de greaser. It came out the whitest its ever been.
