I just installed a K&N air filter and when I went to start tightening all the screws back down, I noticed a gap at the front end of the air box. Its fairly small, less than 1/16", but it is big enough for some tiny particle to go through and make its way straight into the motor.
I reread the instructions 10 times and repeated everything to make sure something wasn't in the way, or the grooves weren't lining up and no matter what I do, its still just a hair too tall. Maybe I'm being paranoid, but has anyone else noticed something like this?
I'll more than likely just go and pick up some closed cell foam to run around the perimeter of the box, but it seems like for a $40 air filter this should fit without modification.
Thanks in advance for your input. This community has lead me to some awesome info and it is greatly appreciated.
