When I purchased this filter from DDM I thought I was buying a fabric filter than can be cleaned and oiled. But when I received it I noticed it was a paper filter instead of fabric. I confirmed with both DDM and RB that it should not be oiled and should be run dry.
So I did.
Even with an outerwears cover on it and after less than 1/2 a tank of gas, I pulled the side cover of the intake box only to see the inside of it caked thick with dirt. Also notice the choke valve caked with dirt.
After that I took a look inside the filter itself only to see it also coated with a nice thick layer of dirt.
I've emailed both RB Innovations and DDM to see what, if anything, they can/will do for me.
As far as I'm concerned, this product is so ineffective that it should be considered a scam. Who even knows how much life was robbed from my new G320RC engine due to this filter. I'm just glad I didn't run it any longer than I did.
