fyi: just a warning if anybody out there has a safari snorkel. if i remember
correctly - safari (on their website) say that the use of oiled (k&n)
filters are not advisable with their products. from experience i have found
that a snorkel cuts down on dust etc anyway so paper filters, which are
cheap and easy to replace (except toyota ones) are the way i went.
also when fording rivers or stuck on really dusty roads, i just turn the
head of my snorkel around so that nothing is "ingested" by accident.

subject: re: [elco] air filter
hi all,
just to follow up on this i have been in touch with
http://www.greenfilters.com/ who make k&n style filters to ask how they
thought their filters would cope in dusty conditions and also what
service/clean interval they recommend in dusty environments.
the bottom line is that they don't think that their filters are
appropriate and think that we would be better off sticking to the
factory paper filters - a nice bit of honesty!
