I took the K&N out to recharge it today and found this in the inlet tract.
I drew the line in the dust to show how dirty the inlet tract was.
I have around 30,000 miles on this filter since the last recharge. I've never had this problem with a K&N on Mustangs, but they've always been the type of filters that clamp directly on to the MAF housing flange.
Now I'm just wondering if the filter had a poor seal in the stock airbox (filter gasket was lightly greased) or if the K&N is letting that much dirt though?
It looks like I'll be giving that Amsoil Ea nonafiber air filter a try sooner rather than later.
