[TR] TR air filters (K&N)

[KingsCreekTrees at aol.com]

In support of Randall, I've heard of many similar stories of K&N  filters. 
I even had a bad, and similar to the 914-6 story, experience with  one in 
the early '80's with my (embarrassment begins here) German-built Capri.  It's 
not a brand I'll subscribe to again.
 
In fact, the piece of research that I referred to earlier had a distinct  
filtration preference for the tea-strainer-and-shop-vac-foam method over  
K&N. I personally believe that open ram pipes filter as much dirt as  K&N's 
(insert lengthy disclaimer/anti-libel drivel here).
