[Tikrit]

Anyone using hurricane filter?

[Boyboy]

i using SS filter but not hurricane. can use water to wash. or airgun to blow. no need detergent unless ur intake suck up some weird craps

[Powerhouse]

Use MAMA Lemon.

Using Simota SS Filter

 

Jus use water is good enough

 

But remember must let it dry thoroughly before placing it back to your air filter housing

[Boyboy]

bro, other alternative is to run engine for awhile, go for a drive.. the air flow shd dry out the filter pretty quickly too.

 

the one occasion i washed i didn't need to drive out for awhile after tt. so i placed it under the sun

[Terenc3]

Huh???? You mean with the wet filter in go for a drive? Erm.. Dun sound like a good idea.... Or did I misunderstand you?

[Boyboy]

that's exactly what i meant. ur filter is metal mesh, it wun hold that much water that it will damage the engine

[Terenc3]

Hmm.. But I dun tink it even a good idea to let abit of water going in ba?

[Thrillman]

water go in good, then the workshop will laugh all the way to Jurong lor. fire and water can mix ma???

[Terenc3]

Haha.. You reply wrong person ba?

[Pisces69]

No lah. A little water won't do much harm. Just dry up when it enter the hot combustion chamber.

 

Just replace it & run it while stationery. Blow blow a bit then take it for a spin. Most it sputter a bit then it sud b clear.

[Boyboy]

i think u confused it with driving thru flooding. that's a different ball game altogether.

 

pple actually release water into engine very carefully when it's running. to allow the steam to clear carbon. the amount of water used is far more than what the wet mesh of the hurricane filter can hold

[Thrillman]

ops, din know that they use water to clear carbon. thout water and carbon don mix>>???

[Darkblue]

Simota SS filter, will have more power ?

[Sickscientist]

I use my home vac cleaner.... Use the flat tip....

I'm using Hurricane SS and wash it every 5000km

 

I run through with water, gently scrub with a toothbrush and dry it with a hairdryer.

i use hurricane ss, and i found water wash will not be clean. dirt still there. must use airgun.

[Sleepgod]

using a toothbrush helps for me.... water wash alone is not adequate
