 A Smart Buy from Novice to Expert Mar 07, 2011
By M. Duran
Though I am frugal, I am aware of the many factors that must be considered in the balance of living well and affordable. I must say that the K&N air filter (not included) and recharger kit (listed here) is an easy, affordable, and effective combination of product that is well worth the buy and the time. All you do to "recharge" is liberally spray the cleaner (in spray bottle) onto both sides of the filter, let sit for ten minutes to break down the grime, let the ~natural flow~ of water (not pressurized by a nozzle) run through the inside (cleaner side) of the air filter to flush the grime out of the other side (repeat if really dirty [doesn't usually need more than once for me and I change it every 6,000-10,000 miles]), and let dry (I shake it out and then let it sit in the sun to make it dry in ten to fifteen minutes). Then, liberally spray the oil (in the aerosol can) onto the outside (the once dirty side), and let sit for about five minutes to allow for the oil to absorb. Check the crowns and grooves on the opposite side to see the places that do now have or need more oil; the filter is whitish and the oil is red in color so you will be able to see where the oil is and how much is there. Repeat until the whole filter is red with oil, wipe the excess oil from the rubber frame, install the clean filter back into your vehicle, start the engine, and listen to that air flow :D.
*NOTE: I use the cleaner and oil very liberally and one recharger kit has lasted me to my third one which I am doing right now. I still have enough for one more "less liberal" recharge for next time. Also, to thoroughly oil the filter in its grooves, it takes a little patience (which tips the five to a four star rating) but again, it's well worth it. Time to go finish my recharge! Take care and I hope this helped!
*UPDATE: It has now been over a year since I have done this review, so I thought I would give some feedback about observations I made recently. The product and air filter still work great! However, I would highly recommend using a "less liberal" amount of oil. When I looked at my spark plugs, they were very rich due to an excess of air filter oil. How do I reduce or prevent this? When applying the oil, apply it to only part of the filter and give it a good twenty minutes; theoretically, this will allow the time needed for the oil to naturally absorb into the fibers of the filter (as they say in the instructions... anxious me). Less excess, less spark plug buildup, and maybe an extra charge out of the kit! If you experience the buildup on your spark plugs, you can just take a wire brush to them. However, blow them off well before re-installing them. We don't want particles in our cylinders :).

 Great kit Dec 15, 2009
By Tree Fiddy
I've been using it for years on auto filters as well as my motorcycle which has an OEM non-disposable filter. It takes very little spray and will last forever. The cleaning process is simple and only takes a few minutes. The kit costs less than most replacements so it should be an easy decision for any reusable filter, even if it's not a K&N.

Great May 27, 2010
By LivinItUp
A bit expensive, but this item is great at doing the job it is meant to do. Always cleans and re-oils the filter without issues. Make sure to get the aerosol oil rather than the squeeze.

A "Must Have" to keep your K&N Air Filter Clean-- Nov 05, 2008
By Claude Stephenson
"theskipperone"
When I purchased my K&N air filter I also bought this air filter care service kit. It has been great to keep my air filter clean. One product is to clean the filter,the other is to coat the filter to enable it to trap the dirt. Because the K&N air filter is so good,the care service kit is not used too often,but it is one thing you will not want to be without when you do service your K&N air filter.

Works great, use every 50K miles May 11, 2010
By J. Morgan
You'll need this kit to maintain your K&N filter. I clean mine about every 50,000 miles.
Save your paper air filter (it should fit in the K&N box). Clean your K&N and use the paper filter while your K&N is drying. Then just oil the K&N and swap them back.
