I have to assume that the thread I posted the other day didn't make it on because I can not find it. If it did make it on, I'm sorry for the repeat.

I have to do my first cleaning of the filter and I just wanted to know if there where any useful tips that are not shown on the DVD they send with the kit. Any and all help is appriciated in advance.

 

Here's one tip on cleaning the AF1 filter (which is made by S&B) that someone posted on here.

I just last week cleaned mine for the first time; cleaned it per the instructions, re-oiled per instructions.

Then let it sit for about 4 hours stuffed full of paper towels.

Removed the paper towels (they had soaked up some oil), then duct taped the filter onto the hose of my shop vac and let it run for about 10 minutes.

This to simulate running at WOT and suck up any oil.

Put the filter back on and no problems whatsoever. No CEL from oil fouling the MAF.

 

I like these tips but what a pain in the ***. Im about to order my S&B today. I wish they would just make a dry filter.

 

In the time it took you to post yer whine about this, I cleaned and oiled my spare filter, and hooked it up to the shop vac. . It's running now - hell, even the vaccuum makes less noise than you ...lol

Wow - I'm just plum tukkered out from ALL that effort - gimma a frosty!

[ btw - j/k lol]

 

Nice, thats was about to be my next question. How much is a spare filter for the S&B intake? By the way I can type quick so when I was done typing you were still contiplating on opening your hood.

 

Your, both wasting your time, I just sprayed mine and stuck it back on my truck. Wait, ok, forget I said anything, mines a K & N drop-in.

 

This thread went to hell quick.

 

yeah, they tend to do that when that wise azz Canuck(Bubba) steps in.

 

...immediately followed by that fast, dumb (and ancient) wise azz Texan !

Lmao, does it fit on my truck.

 

I'm sure he will tell you it will if you have the Xcal2 tuned by Troyer.

 

That great I have the Edge.

 

Well, there you go, you're up chit creek. With that weed wacker filter, you will run lean at 6500 rpms. You just wait, Bubba will tell you.

 

That sucks, thats right in my mid range. (I redline at 10k)

 

I gotta tell ya, gettin' that strategy code off the WW's PCM was a REAL chore LOL!
