Choosing the size
- The 49 mm figure is the inside diameter of the pliable rubber flange, which can stretch by up to 1.5 mm for in-between sizes.
- It is a universal filter with no vehicle list (K&N shows no cross references for this part), so it is chosen by the diameter of the intake tube it is fitted on.
- The 76 mm outside diameter is measured at the base of the filter; at the top the filter is 51 mm.
- The K&N package lists one air filter only. A clamp is not mentioned in the package, so it is ordered separately.
Care
- The filter is washable and reusable, and K&N supplies it pre-oiled and ready for use.
- For re-oiling, K&N specifies 5 ml of air filter oil.
