Folks,



My air cleaner has a wire mesh on both sides, watermelon colored element. I am quite sure it is K&N, but would like somebody to confirm. Didn't take a picture yet, but could. I think K&N is the only one with mesh. I need to buy the cleaner / oil from the K&N site (probably), not sure if local FLAPS would have it. Mine is also customized on the bottom with some darker colored material <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/blink.gif" class="smilie" alt="" /> (dirt!!!!). Thanks.

pics will help. Not too many choices out there for the 68 anyway. I believe the cleaning process is the same for all reusable filters as well. lite stream of water to remove debri, air dry and oil the intake side (opposite the engine).

You can a filter "recharge" kit (includes cleaner and oil) at any major auto parts store.

Clean both sides per the directions and be sure to only oil the bottom side of the filter sparingly.

Here's the filter from the K&N site. I just did the box mod and do recall thin wire mesh on both sides.

Thanks rxter, good idea, that looks exactly like it. I am sure now. Gotta buy the cleaning kit.

when you get it, if the fluid is in a squirt bottle and not a spray can, do yourself a favor and go out and get a spray bottle
