We recommend the K&P Micronic Stainless Steel Oil Filter be cleaned frequently when first purchased or
when engine work has been performed. This will give you a feel for how much debris is being filtered out
of your machines oil and help you decide how often you want to clean the filter for your application.
At minimum, clean the filter with every oil change.
Remember, oil is the lifeblood of your machine, keep it clean!
Wash the reusable stainless steel filter element in clean solvent, kerosene, aerosol carburetor cleaner
or any other degreasing agent; even common dish soap and water. If inspection of trapped debris is desired,
flush the particles into a light colored, clean container.
Once clean, lightly blow air through the filter
from the inside out to remove any small particles or cleaning agent from the screen. Finally, if you have a
spin on model, clean the inside of the filter housing using the same type of cleaner as used on the reusable
filter element.
