Filter Minder

I was puttin a K&amp;N filter on the beast the other day when I noticed a rip on the yellow button on the filter minder. I'm not real concerned with it, but I wonder... should I be? Obviously the filter monder is not working, never has for that matter... but I wonder how much crap I could be sucking through there. <br>-Dave

Re:Filter Minder

I have 28,000 miles on my filter and that thing has yet to move off zero. Is it that clean New England air? : Maybe I should have a visual check.

Re:Filter Minder

Y'all still haven't really answered my question. My Filter minder has a tear in the yellow rubber button on top... I was wondering if its possible to pull very much unfiltered air through it? Would even be worth worrying about? Maybe I should just break down and get a Scotty II....
