I CLEAN MINE by rinsing it with gas, then actyually using dish soap to get all the dirt and crap out. then let it dry off after this. Put the oil on it. go ride.

Foam filter will clean better with kerosene instead of gas. Gas will have a tendancy to break down the foam. Let dry completely and use spray on filter oil (less mess.)
