I'm going over my 2001 Dakota that I just acquired and it appears the air filter needs to be replaced.
When I went to check the price and availability of a 33-2175 K&N air filter I just about choked. I saw them priced anywhere from $54.00 to $121.00 and thought you've got to be kidding me????
I'm wondering....can I clean this existing filter some way and reuse it? Except for being dirty can I just toss it in the sink with some hot water and Dawn dish soap and clean it up??
If not can someone point me to a cheaper source for these filters?
Also, is it a must that I use a K&N filter?
Thanks for you
