    Cleaning/oiling a mopar CAI

    I just picked up a Mopar CAI for my 3.5L from ebay . It is clean and ready to be used , but I began to wonder what I can use to clean and oil it when the time comes .
    Can I use the K&N cleaner and oil ?

    the k&n will make the filter red.

    mopar cleaner will make it blue.

    both will work fine. just depends on what color you want the filter to be.

    I did some digging around and I ordered a cleaning kit from my local dealer . I picked it up yesterday and it is in fact the Mopar CAI cleaning kit with blue oil .
    It is part # P5153376 and it can be had for around $15 CDN .
