Oiling your K&N air filter

in General Tech Discussion 14 years ago
Here is another quick airfield video on oiling your K&N air filter. The big problem is owners want to over oil the element. A light spray where you can still see the white gauze is all you want. If you over oil it will restrict air flow and the oil will migrate into the carb and gum things up.

    When oiling your filter only oil it on the top side as the oil will migrate downward with the air circulation. Remember only a very light spray or oiling.
