nrgizerbunny 20 Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 anything you have to Oil is a bad idea IMO especially with a toyota DENSO MAF.the Oil seems to bake onto the heated wire and its bye bye MAF. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bamber 0 Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 I have a k&n, clean and Oil it every couple of months, did it on monday actualy, never had any problems with my maf sensor apart from the wires pulling out of th plug haha. got the cleaner/oil kit off ebay, not very expensive. ask santa to bring you one Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I cleaned the crud out of my blitz occasionally, and since then I have bought a metal heatshield to go around my filter. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madvinegar 10 Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 Or buy a 'Maintenance Free' A'PEXi ;)From where can we order that and how much does it cost? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bong Water 2 Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 An Apex'i does not require any maintenance, it is to be replaced every 80k miles Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madvinegar 10 Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 KN vs APexi? What is your preference? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bong Water 2 Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 KN vs APexi? What is your preference?For me neither, I dont think the cost for the gain is justified but if I were to buy one it would definitely be Apex'i. I dont like oiled filters Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madvinegar 10 Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 I have already installed a KN panel in the airbox but I was wondering if one of the two is better (or any other brand like Green etc). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
