What have you used and how have you cleaned your popcharger ? Thanks !

 

K&N recharger, instructions are on the box, very easy

 

Just don't spray on too much oil or you will kill your air flow meter.

 

also make sure it is dry when you put it back in the car.

 

If you use K&N, your filter will turn red. If you want it to stay blue, buy the recharger kit from Performance Nissan,

Thanks for that ! Already have the blue oil , just wanted to know if it was plain water and any special procedure. Thanks again .

Originally was told it was higher miles before cleaning , now it appears to be sooner . At what interval are most people cleaning it ?It has been three - five months .

 

I just finished cleaning and recharging mine with the K&N supplies. The K&N equipment includes cleaning solution that you spray on before you clean it with water. You then leave it in the sun to dry. Tucson has a lot of sun. I have both the liquid and the spray solution. I dripped the liquid on the sides, and sprayed it on the top. I'm leaving it on my workbench overnight for it to dry. Yes, with the K&N stuff, now it's red.

I completely forgot we had to clean these, thanks for the reminder..just ordered the cleaner from Performance.

 

how many miles r we supposed to clean it by?

 

With the instructions from Performance , it says 3 months or getting brown . Also , the cleaning process is different on the Blue oil spray can than it is from Performance's direction .The oil can says to use a mild detergent , then flush .Performance says just water . Hmmm !

 

Hmmmmmmm!!

 

clean it when it starts to get really dusty, basicly when you tap it and particals fall!

I havent had enough down time on my car to take off my intake filter, wash it / spry it / let it dry... so i just beat my filter against my shoe... DONT TRY THAT AT HOME!

but you can use any filter oil like the K&N or the JWT oil...

IMHO - I would recomend the K&N oil since it comes with the cleaning solution and then the oil spray...
