cleaning hks filters
anyone just wash out their hks foam air filters instead of replacing them? what would be the harm of cleaning them with water since they are a foam element?

They are cheap, just replace them. Get some K&N oil and work through them before installation.

Just get new filters. They are relatively cheap and can be found at your local race shop. Don't use any oil on them, they are foam so they absorb liquids. They are not meant to be cleaned at all. They are disposable.

Cetchup is correct. HKS filters are not meant to be reused. They have oil in them so washing them would strip the oil....the oil is NOT the same as a KnN filter.
