Turps is a bad choice it can attach plastics and foams.You better check the filter isn't dissolving

It's all good, I washed out all the turps with plenty of cold water.

And posters that just gotta whinge

I know, but she is entitled to her opinion (although there's plenty more fucked up threads to whinge about IMHO)


If you get stuck, I can give OAB one of those K%N filter recharger kits with the cleaner and oil if it helps.

Hell no, at least he's using the site for biking stuff... instead of all the faggoty threads about things like Islam (yay towelheads), depression (yay headcases), and threads by those total retards that post nothing but some shitty youtube link (it's not facebook losers).

Thanks for your help everyone. I put the bike together and it runs mint now. I estimate I have saved at least $300 by doing the work myself instead of paying a mechanic to do it.

..........And learnt something new. (thats probably more important than the dollars, gave it a go, fucked it up, asked for help, listened to whats been said, followed instructions, achieved what it was you set out to do.)

PHEW!..glad someone noticed that one , poormans filter cleaner...warm water (not hot) with a "little" soap, then rinse with lots of cold water, then air dry.(or if you have the dosh buy a cheap filter cleaning solution..not to costly) and always add fresh filter oil after cleaning...its what traps the dirt & repels the water...or you just end up with a clean sieve lol)

And good on ya for doing the work yourself ...its the best way to save money and learn. (as long you take your time and do some research...can't go wrong)
