Is there something special about the dry flow filter cleaning solution that aem makes or can I use an alternative cleaning solution. Really can't find that stuff at Kragens or autozone

 

AEM has a cleaning kit you can purchase from them.

But I just flushed mine with a hose and then dunked it in some soapy water then flushed it with water again. I did it a few times checking to see if theres any dirt left then I shook off the excess water and left it out in the sun to dry.

 

What he said. It takes a while to dry though.

 

Will dish soap be good or ps that too harsh? Thanks for the feedback

 

ive heard dish soap is actually the best and softest soap to use. granted youre not washing paint but a rigid wired filter. ive soaked in warm soapy dish soap f or 15, rinsed, repeat soak, rinse, reapeat soak, rinse, dry, oil. havent had any problems

 

i use simple green, seems to work well? i would think gentler and just as effective as soap?
