Seems there’s a wealth of differing opinions out there so figured I may as well ask you guys what you’re doing on your cars..
I have a JLT intake on my car, filter is in decent shape but pretty overdue for a cleaning or replacement. While I have the car on stands I’m going to do some of the things I’ve been putting off and the filter is one of them. Best method to clean the actual element? Should I buy a cleaning solvent or just use soapy water and dry it in the sun? Is re-oiling the filter really necessary? Should I just buy a new filter and be done with it?
I know this isn’t as exciting as coming in here with a question about a blower or changing suspension components but let me know your process!
