What do you guys recommend to clean my air cleaner....is k&n spray good sprays red

 

What kind of air cleaner do you have?

 

If its an oiled cotton filter the K&N spray is fine

 

It's not cotton it's wired the k&n filter

 

The red stuff is the oil, you will need to clean it with the K&N (or alike) cleaner and water before you re-oil it with the red spray...

 

I use K&N filter

 

The RED K&N spray is to oil cotton filters. It is not a cleaner. I use the following K&N filter recharger kit. It comes with a cleaning spray (works very well) and filter oil (Be careful not to over oil the filter).

Filters are usually made of one of three different types of material e.g. Cotton, Sponge/Foam or Paper. If you do not have a cotton or sponge/foam filter then it is most likely not serviceable. If you have a paper filter then I would just replace the filter element instead of attempting to clean it.

Also, if your air filter is exposed to the elements like the air cleaner below, invest in a rain sock. It will extend the life of the filter.

One more thing, the filter in the picture above is a 4 inch K&N cotton filter. The cotton is shaped and protected by a wire/metal mesh screen. Is this what you mean by "Wired"?

Good Luck!

 

What other cleaner will work on a K&N filter

 

If you can't do a simple thing like clean a air cleaner maybe you should go to a shop. The directions are on the bottle read them

 

Ouch - being a little tough on the Beaver aren't you Ward....
