yeah times that by 10... i nearly had a hive of wasps, it was filthy!

i used foam air filter cleaner, its the business, should clean it about 5 times i recon, better than those fluid filter cleaning kits

I need to do my BMC soon, although I doubt it is too bad as I cleaned it pre-rebuild, so has only done about 6 or 7k.

Where did you buy the foam cleaner from? I have a green panel filter which I should really give some TLC to.

Thanks

ive told you a million times not to exagerate.... emoticon-0136-giggle.gif

What are you menna use to clean them? With my panel filter it i just used fairy liquid and blasted boiling water through it. Seemed clean enough, them sprayed it with that special oil stuff.

its proberly only a detergent thats in the filter cleaning kits anyway
