Bought an AFE air filter last year and finally got around to installing it today. After opening the engine bay, the usual dusty mess stared back at me. Since it was right in front of me and wasn't going to go away by itself, I hit it with a mixture of Simple Green and QuicknBrite cleaner. Used a 3" paint brush to scrub all the surfaces, then rinsed it with the garden hose. Sure looks a lot better now.
Checked the drains while I had it opened up. Water drained out just fine, but I could see something stuck in the upper section of the drains just below the foam tray on both sides. Fished these out with a pair of needle nose pliers. Some PO or mechanic is probably still looking for that torx bit.
