Dirt getting by airfilter

[side_fxxx]

i just removed my engine to put new rings on it and noticed that dirt was getting by the stock airbox with the toomey kit 2 stage foam filter. it was all on the walls up to the carb.

 

is there something to use to make a better seal where the filter meets the box??

smear generous amount of grease around the lip of the filter.

make sure your ring on the filter is tight,,and try putting an outerwere on it or a filterskin!

Gotta make sure the filter is all the way down in the groove and the ring is tight. Also need to use the right oil.

I clean the sh*t out of my filter then spray on some filter oil, than i put pantie hose on than the outwear, and i have never had a problem

the only problem is that if you run no air box lid so that the air box lid hold the top of the filter to the air box the bottom of the filter will sit in the grove but the top is loose.

Exactly. If you dont have an air box cover your better off with a pro flow kit with a clamp on, Or you can get a K&N power lid. If your running the stock lid just get some K&N sealing grease.
