I think it's best to buy a second one so u could put on on as soon as u remove the one in your vehicle and clean the one that's dirty while having a fresh one in and do this repeatedly Put the other filter in a closed boxed container to keep clean. And for future use
@@tattooadventuresso once you clean it and have it oiled how long can it sit before I use it. Say I have 2 filters and cleaned one and put the other in truck. Is the clean one okay to wait till other is dirty
Great vid. Good detail and very informative. I remember back in the 90s when I first starting using them. I only had the paper instructions and had to figure it out myself. Glad you doing this for new truck enthusiasts.
Thanks for sharing. I hate doing this on my dirt bikes, I would never do it on my cars, but I bought a truck with one one it. So much simpler and better to just stick with a stock air filter.
Nice vid! Seems having a few clean filters to change out would be best so a quick change could be done while properly cleaning the dirty one. Thanks for the tutorial, well done! :)
I let my filter sit on my counter for two days before installing. It’s probably been about two or three weeks and I checked the filter and it was dripping a bit. Should I be concerned?
Idk if mine is supposed to oiled or not i cant tell mine looks like yours but pictures look like it supposed to be red but mine looks like it never was
I had a K&N years ago. It cost more to clean it than what an OEM filter cost. And I never saw any benefit from it. Just watched a video that showed less than a 3% improvement over the stock filter.
Costs more to clean it? I’ve had the same filter for years and cleaned it multiple times with the same bottles of cleaner and oil that came with it. Doesn’t cost anything
@@majordudley35 OK let's do the math. I bought my car with a K&N filter already installed, No oil or cleaning kit included. It was in bad shape. The cheapest cleaning kit cost $19.95 on Amazon. The new filter costs anywhere from $9.95 to $15.52 on Amazon for the OEM filter. I try to keep the Caddy OEM as possible. I can change the OEM filter in a few minutes. I wish to not wash this filter out and apply new oil for the little bit of performance it may provide. If I say the cost of time and effort are not worth it, I stand by that statement. Your opinion may vary, I'm good with that. Best wishes.
Really appreciate people like you on TH-cam I have the same truck and don’t know much about vehicles so this really helps out

This is what I do as well. This way you’re not stuck waiting for the filter to dry in case you need to go somewhere.

Exactly that’s what I do . Every oil change I clean out the filter and put clean one on
That's a smart idea...
Great idea, at the time they didnt have the filter out yet for my 2019 Ram yet, maybe they do now
I add an extra step by cleaning the maf a week after cleaning the filter. Some of the oil can work its way past the filter and on to the maf
Whats the process on that? Spray down with brake parts cleaner?

Just subscribed 👍 had no idea you had a car channel 😎
What about compressed air for a first step?
Maybe a good idea to have 2 filters. While one sits on your work bench to be cleaned you can still drive with the 2nd one!
Smart 🧠

Did you have a check air filter code pop up on your truck after you installed it. I have the GMC version of your truck.

Weapons cleaning kit brush nice 👍🏼
Do u really have to rinse it before u put on the cleaner?
What front bumper is that ?
I was wondering that myself.
Got a 2018 z71 Silverado. Nice trail boss. You get an afm disabler?
Saw another video and they washed the outside of filter too. Is this correct
no, you want the dirt/grime to exit out so only rinse it from the inside out.
Man looks like we have the same car 😂 but I’m about to add this intake in mines it’s also my first car too so I have modded tf out of it
K & N says to spray the inside also...
Thanks for the information.
You did a great job spraying that oil all over your hand 🤚
Not to mention toward his truck, tire, wheel and possibly rotor
great content brother👍
Just hit 80k on my 06’ GMC Sierra. K&N filter the entire time. maybe its due for a cleaning
Thank you for this how to video👍
Nice job but seems like you’re spraying the cleaner and oil in the direction of your truck lol
😮guywaft😊fuc
And then hands too just in case
Its so he doesn’t rust on the truck lol
Seems like your putting most of the oil on your hand bro!
This beats routinely buying new filters
A couple douses in gas clean it rite up get all the oil out

Cool man👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 go OEM then everyone knows that shit
That’s the wrong cleaner that’s for dry flow filters
❄️❄️
All the instructions says do not use a spray nozzle
That's what I thought also read using a hair dryer is not good? Just let air dry
No just a a light pressure setting , well that's what mine says
The cleaner you're using is for dry filters only... bruh
that’s what i thought he was confusing me..i just wasted 15 bucks learning that myself
