There is a cleaning and re-oil kit available from several companies.

I suggest that you oil it lightly and then wrap it in newspaper overnight to absorb the excess oil.

It might save you cleaning your MAF.

Thanks Loren,

I will call my favorite parts place for the kit.

Use a nylon soft brush to remove the heavy particles and back flush the filter from the clean to the dirty side after applying the cleaning agent. Then make sure the filter is completely dry before re oiling, and only oil the filter in the direction of air flow , do not do both sides. As loren says , make sure the filter is wrapped in newspaper or a soft cloth to absorb any residual oil before refitting.

According to the BMC manual, the filter should be cleaned every 20,000 miles (25,000 km).

Is the BMC like a K&N and only require cleaning every 50000 miles? Will the K&N filter charger kit work?
