When servicing a vehicle with any of these concerns, be sure to check for the

Klaus what are We to do? Check and make sure they are not over oiled? Perf. shop put mine on infact it was the company that had been making proflash programer. I bought his air sys., throttle body spacer, and programer. I know that anyone that has used K and N should know that after they clean and reoil that You spray oil to just barely change color from white to I'll call it pink or very light red or at least that is what I have always done. Seriously what is Your thinking on this so if i need to do something different I want to know right away and do it. I know I have been in for 1 oil change and service and I see the same ser. manager every time or if i call I talk to Him. He has never mentioned anything. Please let Me know what you are think or are hearing should be done. Go back to stock?
Thank You for bringing this up.
