cleaning intake - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #66958 9 posts Started by azn87
good evening everyone,

i was wondering how and what do i use to clean my injen filter and what type of oil do i use on the filter after i clean it? thanxs
Buy a K&N filter recharger kit, it comes with the detergent and oil.
someone had told me that injen cotton and k&n filter is different material, using the k&n cleaning kit will destroy the cotton on the injen intake?
thats why you get dry filters like AEM and Fujita, I switched out my INJEN filter. But I am still using the INJEN Piping.

2+ years on cleaning my injen intake with a K&N recharge kit with no problems so far.

which reminds me that I should clean mine tonight since it's nice outside.

Would it be bad to clean it with brake cleaner + air from compressor?

I guess it's time for a change then looooool
problems that happen with oiled filters is when it gets into the system. thats what started dry filters.
