Re: K&N Filter Cleaning?

You do know they do a cleaning kit for the K+N the foam one. If I didnt have one I would wash it out with warm soapy water, rinse it and after its dry spray it with a light oil . But thats just me :roll:

Re: Air compressors

I am with Armo on this one Richy , I did spray my car the last time with a 150 but I now have a 200. A lot of air tools are very heavy on air so the bigger the better . Even the 200 comes up short for some of my air tools :wink:

Re: Rebuild of my 1000 GT

Well the big black brute is now gone :( so its been onwards and upwards with the mini . New headliner is now in as is the cage. Had some trouble with the front hubs . The wheelnuts started to spin on the studs. :roll: Well the long and short of it is the stud holes in the hubs were drilled oversize ...
