Hitman Neutral Newbie February 3, 2004 Share February 3, 2004 Remember the thing I said about the wire filter mesh in a post above. You might have to give up air cleanliness for the engine. Just tie up a cloth in front of it as the mesh will not help in filtering small road dust Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FGY7022 Neutral Newbie February 3, 2004 Share February 3, 2004 Whoa!! serious arh..... what type of cloth... i was thinking about it last nite also... somemore thinking what type you know... thinking about filter paper and stuff... kekeke think until sweat.

Hitman Neutral Newbie February 3, 2004 Share February 3, 2004 Just a gauze will do ... can find at Guardian Pharmacy, and just tie it up on the opening. Suction from the E68 is quite strong so jus precautionary on the kinda dust it can suck in Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie47 1st Gear February 3, 2004 Share February 3, 2004 Tried it on someone else's car. Same car chassis and engine as mine. Better response with the Power Storm. Car is carburetted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie47 1st Gear February 3, 2004 Share February 3, 2004 If you are using these air bleed devices. No need to use K&N filter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie47 1st Gear February 3, 2004 Share February 3, 2004 Well, they are in the essence "sand". Imagine sand in your engine. Just change engine oil regularly like what Vidz said. Every 5k. I like paper filters. They are no mess things. Change every 10k. Better filtration. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FGY7022 Neutral Newbie February 3, 2004 Share February 3, 2004 Thanks guys... will do so.. (the cloth, changing engine oil more regularly and stuff) as for the K&N filter, i think i will jus keep aside the money for other things then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
