Default POD filter cleaning

Hey Guys.

It's time for me to service my AU2 XR6. The previous owner put a P&N pod filter on it. How does one clean this thing? Heaps of people have told me I need to clean it, but with what? Do I just scrub it with Minural turps? Do I hose it off?

Or am I meant to spray it with something?

Mick

Get yourself a K&N recharge kit (Clean & Oil kit) I think I paid 20 odd for mine, supercheap and the like have them.

Follow the instructions, basically spray with the cleaner, wash out after letting it soak (Dont use high pressure) let it dry naturally (No air compressor drying) re-oil as per instructions.

By no means try to clean the filter with turps or srubbing....these things are expensive but will last a lifetime if serviced correctly.
