I keep a paper one since I clean / oil mine annually and I am meticulous about how I do it. I have never had an issue with a MAF or anything else. Basically, I follow the instructions since I figure they know more than I do. More oil does not mean more filtering.

The filter in my 1290 R is such a pain to get at, I finally decided to buy a second K&N to swap in when it's time for a cleaning and a re-oil. With my cars, I keep paper filters on hand, to install temporarily until the K&N filter is cleaned, re-oiled and ready for reinstallation! 😉

Hey KN, what does the Filter Oil do? My Mustang also has a KN Air Filter but I sadly have to clean my Air Mass Sensor after doing multiple hard pulls because its covered in Oil afterwards. Is the Oil just for expanding the Life Time of the Filter or does it have more purpose?

The filter oil is a critical part of the filtration process and should always be applied when cleaning. We have oil-free Dryflow filters available if you would prefer a filter that doesn't require filter oil. If you are continuing to encounter issues or have any other questions please feel free to contact our product specialists at 800-858-3333 or tech@knfilters.com for support.

If I oil the filter pretty good and it drips a little, can that suffocate a carburetor? It’s on my motorcycle now and everything seems to be working fine, I’m just wondering I lost any power by possibly overoiling it. My bike doesn’t have sensors to affect, just an old school carb to the engine. I used the aerosol spray.

If you have a cotton (not dryflow) filter, make sure to apply filter oil when cleaning as it is a critical part of the filtration process. K&N filter oil is available in red, blue, or black on our website knfilters.com. If you like the look of the filter media and don't want to apply a color filter oil, check out clear filter oil from our sister company Spectre Performance www.spectreperformance.com/884820-air-filter-cleaning-kit.

For many, these attributes make a vehicle more fun to drive regardless of the vehicle type. If you would like more info on K&N intakes check them out on our website www.knfilters.com/cold-air-intakes
