Question: I have an AEM CAI and I just cleaned the AEM filter after 2 years (6000 mi) of use and it's not really dirty yet. But, I cleaned it anyway with the AEM cleaning kit.

But after I reinstalled the filter back, and first started the engine, it felt as if the engine had a hicup and it didn't start. So, i paused and thought of any reason why. But it started the second time and could not recreate it afterwards.

Does anyone know of the reason why? Did I over oil the filter (but I was following the instructions carefully) ? Was it hydrolock? Was I not pressing the clutch hard enough?

How would you know if you have over oiled it?

Thanks in advance for your help.

did you let the filter air dry enough before you re-oiled it?

Yes, I left it overnight to dry up.

Thanks
