Where did my Air Filter go after PFS intercooler modification???
 
Anybody know if there is still an air filter in the air intake box on the left of the image below after the PFS intercooler modification......There are 3 or 4 hex screws holding the box together but they are seriously blocked by the intercooler etc.....Do i have to get in there and replace a filter???? Anybody done it???? How???

thanks for your comments!!

better be...must likely a k&N type in there...just need to be cleaned from time to time...that's all.

Remember, you need to reoil the filter after you clean it/them.

what's the proper way to "clean" the air filter>>

seabass 09-02-01 10:57 PM

get the kit made by k & n it includes the cleaner and the spray oil that you need.

thanks again!

Apply cleaner by K&N.
Wash with garden hose. (Do not spray at the dirty side thus forcing dirt further in to the filter.)
Let dry.
Apply K&N filter oil.
Done!

so how do i get the air filter out of here???
 
It looks to me like i have to remove all six hoses going into the air intake box..........then the box......... then pull off the back to get at the air filter............ is that what I've got to do???

seems like a PITA to do but if that's what i've got to do then that's what i'll do...........Is that the way to do this??? Thanks for the comments>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>:cool:

a pic of my setup is in the first post on this thread.........i now know there is probably a K&N filter in there and have bought the cleaner and oil for the filter but just double checking on how to get it out of there>>>>>>>>>>>

I don't own the PFS intake but from what I have heard it is a big pain to get at the filter. You are probably correct in your assumptions.
