I clean and reuse 7 months on the same filter I clean as often as 3 to 5 runs on stock losi five filter with outerwear and no toil cleaner and oil
I'm using the no toil cleaner looks like tide I use maybe 2 teaspoons in hot water then I let it soak for about 3 minutes I squeeze it many times and I squeeze it with fresh water a few more time I let it dry overnight but I read somewhere that it splits the dt 1 filter it removes the glue in between so not good for those type of filters but I could be wrongwhat you using to clean?
same hereHot water and dawn soap works lovely for me. Every 3 to 5 runs also depending on were im driving and conditions. Becomes a pain sometimes but at least i no theres no dirt going into motor. Diffantly a piece of mind
Foam fir me!Slightly off topic...and not hijack this thread, but are most of you guys running a foam based filter or a k&n type like I have? Main reason I ask is you clean them differently and it may be helpful to know
yeah i agree, i always cringe when i see people running those filters off road+1 go foam coz the kn filters let too much in
turtle racing, nuff saidIts what came with my DBXL. I'm not crazy about it. But with the filter hanging out the side and the outterwears over it I figured it would work. Unfortunately I don't know of any decent filter options that bring it inside the body without restricting flow or protruding farther outside of the body
