pj1 air filter cleaner???

[Eddie]

I changed the oil in my gt750, then I thought I might as well clean the air filter which is a stock air filter and box. I cleaned the filter with gas, and then realized I had no oil to coat the filter with and then I remembered I had pj1 filter oil that I used to use for my dirt bikes, so I used it , and now I'm afraid it might be to thick or cause the carbs to clog? I read on another site that a guy used the stuff on a certain type of filter and it ate the damn filter??!!! not sure what type of foam filter it was but damn I hope it doesn't eat mine!!!! anybody use this stuff on a street bike?? it might make my miles per gallon drop because its so tacky and thick ??

Use ordinary gearbox oil or even 2 stroke oil. Just oil it and squeeze it out again. Enough will stay to do the job..

It should be fine with the PJ1 filter oil. Have a read of the great article called "What's in a tune-up?" about tuning up Suzuki triples - it seems they prefer to have the filters quite oily, rather than under-oiled ...
