LOL! I've heard of people running them through the dishwasher too. I'm not brave enough to put mine in the washing machine OR dishwasher - my wife would have a fit! Besides, I woun't want her to find out I know how to operate either of those appliances - she might start expecting me to

Seriously though, they say you aren't even supposed to use compressed air on them, so I stay away from high pressure water with mine. I just use gasoline. It's cheap, dries really fast and dissolves the old oil out of the filter almost instantly.....
