More new is coming ...

The K&N air filter has been on the truck for many years ..
It was made for dirt circle track racing ..

Being it's reusable, seen many servicing .. Wash, let dry and reoil ..
Back to new again ..
But it seem to have shrunk about 3/4-7/8 of a inch and no longer sits flush on the base plate causing the bonnet to be crooked bolted down ..
Over the years this problem has got worse ...
Looks like it's time for a replacement .

Think I know why it shrunk ... Living 10 years in the Mojave Desert was very hard on rubber products .. If the old Binder was a horse there was many days that it would had it's tongue hanging out !!

Just got off the horn with K&N ... Sent some photos for them to see what I'm dealing with ... They are sending me a new one ... Lifetime warrantee they do stand behind ..
My hat is off to those boys, I was going to try to run the old filter after attempting to stretching the rubber back out to close to where it once was ... No need for that now !
