oh wow.....those are extreme conditions man, that dirt is like a fine powder......YOU MUST be dialed in the airfilter area when running in conditions like that.......from here on out, MAKE SURE the filter is oiled well, OUTER AND INNER, and you should replace probably after each day of running in places like that.......dont even bother attempting to clean them, just toss them in garbage and replace with fresh assembly......cheers!

Trust me, I'd love to try one, and if things were a little different I probably would. I just can't put down $400+ on a new engine and pipe right now. That may change next week, but it might not change until next month. This county's in such a mess right now you never know. Ahh well what can you do??

I been reading this thread from the beginning. Frosty if I was you I find other people to talk too. This is bash central. We already know he has no job or funds to fix motor. We know its he's fault. How many times do we have to here this. The guy is know and asking for advice. Why does he have to take all the shots. Unless your in his shoes, in his town , you shouldnt bash him. Yeah we might do things different but thats why we're all different. Give the guy advice. Like recommending outer wear for the filter or show him were to get a piston and sleeve. Everyone has did something stupid. We live and learn. I'm not taking shots just wish you guy were a little positive.

mfrosty, Ill try to keep my post on topic. I just replaced my blown OS.28 so I feel your pain. I do agree that the package has horrible labeling and see how some could make the mistake of buying it thinking its inners and outers (including myself). I think though I would of stopped myself once I had to cut the inner filter to make it fit (being a solid piece). Did you question it at all why you had to take that step? Just courious. Hope everything works out for you.

did PSR send you a replacement motor and filter's due to bad filter design? if so that is AWESOME support and he/they should be commended for it!
