It gets a few bugs, some dirt, some rubber dust. It'll be colored.
She learning Photo Shop?
Starting to...it’s a new experience for her.
She is a smart, sweet young lady. The sky is her limit. You and your wife, sorry I forgot her name, should be proud. Not easy raising children I know....
The wife is “Bets”...and yeah, my daughter is smart enough to do anything she sets her mind to. She’s a great kid and sweet as pie. Some lucky guy is going to have his hands full with her someday!She is a smart, sweet young lady. The sky is her limit. You and your wife, sorry I forgot her name, should be proud.

Man, I applaud you, I know I cannot fathom that day for my daughter, I'll be like the father from that Father of the Bride(my wife's favorite movie btw) and having a panic attack the first time she dates
Dave, how far away are you from retirement?

ouch. low blowTomorrow!!!!
Ya I know, but really its going to change color before I take it out.It gets a few bugs, some dirt, some rubber dust. It'll be colored.
If it’s a paper filter, it can be dyed using food coloring in a water solution sprayed on the filter and then let dry. It will hold the color for the life of the filter. Just remember that it will dry lighter than the color of solution you spray.
You can always rattle can them any color you want! might not breath too well tho.......Just the front!!
I can actually confirm this. I worked for 3 years for a diesel performance shop here locally. Doing nothing but dyno tunes and installs. K&Ns and any oiled filters literally suck new out of the box. We would see Exhaust temps a good 100-200 degrees higher and resulting in as much as 15-20 hp drop versus when they were broke in. We concluded the oiled filters were oversaturated when new thus clogging the filter but as the engine sucked the oil out of the filters, they got better. So what we would do is take the air compressor at about 90 psi and blow the excess oils out of the filter. Seemed to work better. That and on certain forced induction engines, especially intake heated diesels, I highly advise against oiled filters. Had more than a couple catch fire in colder weather due to the oils from the filters.
Yep Tim and you have the same idea I do....thanks.
I have found the same to be true. The airflow across a “dirty” K&N seems to be more consistent and controlled than a clean one. I did tons of testing of various air filters in my SRT and found the K&N to work best after about 10 k miles. The old Fram Air Hog was best out of the box.
Where does the oil go? I have run mine for 25k miles and it never left. Oil is not volatile.
It gets sucked out of the filter, thru the Carb and burns off.
Also true. There's a very fine line. Which is why we stopped running oiled filters. We converted all of ours to run big rig air filters and not only picked up horsepower but lowered air temps as well. But it requires modifications to stuff one under the hood but they do very well
