Are Weber air filters cleanable? Would you just use a k&n recharge kit? Or do I have to buy a new filter offline? Mine jus looks rough and I wanna clean it up or somethin. . . . .

I've cleaned my weber filter a few times with the K&N recharge kit. Works great.

Agree ^ The k&n recharge kit works wonders.

Ok cool, I'll definately oil it, if I'm sprayin it out, I'm sure its wearing on the filter element so the oil will help filter. .

Thanks for all the input guys! ! I couldnt seem to find any info on this anywhere online. .

you never want to blow it out with a air compressor!!! think about it if there is anything left in there that didnt get washed out and you put a fast amount of air to it whats gonna happen? you are gonna make larger holes in your filter which in turn means larger dirt particles are able to get into your engine! if it was me i would just wash it out and set it out to dry for a day or so but thats just my 2 cent!
