With the BMC cleaner or an air filter element cleaner solution. Dont use petrol as it could cause a fire

Carb cleaner also works well!

kamracing sells it otherwise halfrauds sell one suitable. The BMC kit comes with a red breather oil though to restore the functionality of the filter.

noo

The BMC is an oil based filter - TB cleaner will totally ruin it!!

this is what you ll need - its expensive, but lasts 4-5 times to do it

Mine was second hand too - cleaning made it come up like new!
