Fill your sink with water, add a tad of dish soap, swish the filter around, rinse the filter in clean water, let dry

You can clean it with a K&N recharge kit. The solvent gets the old oil and dirt out and then you re oil it. dont over oil it though as it can create some problems.

You can either use a filter recharging kit (K&N or other), or you can clean it in warm soapy water. Let it dry naturally (dont take you air compressor to it ). Re-oil it lightly. Too much oil is not good for your MAF. The instructions on the K&N recharge kit are quiet good.......
