Condor Posted August 2, 2010 Share #1 Posted August 2, 2010 The K&N filter that came with the '91 when I first bought it had a very soggy oil soaked foam seal. The filter cleaned up well, but the seal was toast so I put the it on the shelf. While talking to Rocket I mentioned the bad seal and he told me that K&N would warantee it. Their filters do have a lifetime warantee. So I sent them an Email offering to buy one since I wasn't the original purchaser. They replied and sent me a new seal free of charge. They even picked up the shipping. They now have a lifetime customer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterGuns Posted August 2, 2010 Share #3 Posted August 2, 2010 This 86 of mine had the same problem when I first got it. Once I figured out it had too much oil in the motor and lowered that down to about 3.8 quarts, I just removed the old seal from the bottom of the K&N and replaced it with with a section of that stick on window seal. Been that way for about a year now. Works like a charm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm too impatient to wait on anything. You know, the "TYPE A" type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
massey130 Posted August 2, 2010 Share #6 Posted August 2, 2010 I'm too impatient to wait on anything. You know, the "TYPE A" type. Yea, but you have a fix in place, so you are not really "waiting" on something if you get warranty parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
