do i just rinse it and let it dry ? is it a bad idea to drive with no filter in while its drying?
anything else i should know?

mate, dont drive with no filter, means all the shit that the filter is designed to stop entering the motor will have no problems getting in there = bad idea.

yeh figured as much, just wondering how much i should soak the lukey and how dry it has to be before its a good idea to put back in

It needs to be fully dry and oiled before refitting.
