Force Filter’s Precision Cleaning & Oiling Kit allows vehicle owners to properly maintain their high performance air filters by precisely applying the correct amount of oil. The clearly marked bottle and easy-to-use applicator allow the user to measure and apply the proper amount oil for each application.
Force’s has conducted extensive testing with the Precision Cleaning Kit to ensure that it can be used on most high performance filters available today.
Remove and clean the filter from your vehicle. Clean sealing area of filter and filter housing with a clean soft clean rag. Do not start your vehicle without a filter installed. Shake or lightly tap the filter on a hard surface to remove and loosen large particles and debris. A soft brush many be used to loosen large pieces of debris or bugs. Make note of which side of the filter has trapped the dirt. Use Force Filter’sFilter Cleaner to clean the filter.
Fill applicator bottle with the correct amount of oil. Rotate the Squeeze Bottle of Oil with the cap facing downward. Make note of your starting point on the measurement gauge to make sure that the proper amount of oil is dispensed. When reoiling a filter, it is critical to place the oil on the side where the dirt will accumulate. Using the applicator bottle, place a drop of oil on the peak of each pleat where it meets urethane (rubber).
Allow oil to bleed for 20-30 minutes, then apply remaining oil to any white areas and re-install air filter. After allowing the oil to bleed for 20-30 minutes, inspect the filter for any white areas where the oil did not cover. With the remaining oil in the Applicator, apply a small amount of oil to those white areas. Apply the correct amount of oil (+ 5 grams) is critical to proper performance of the filter. DO NOT over oil your filter.
