Cold Air Intake Question?

I Recently Cleaned My Afe Intake Filter. When I Reoiled It I Used Was Oil From K&n. Was That A Bad Idea? It Seems Like It Is Leaking Oil From The Filter. Did I Put Too Much On? Maybe I Didnt Let It Dry Enough? Are You Suppose To Reoil The Filter? I Know You Are From K&n...

Sounds like you put to much oil on. The oil on the filter should have the media completely damp but not wet enough to drip.

I have just recently bought some k&n oil spray for my quads filter and was alot thinner than my AFE oil was. This is myirst time using K&N oil but if its all that thin I could see how easy it would be to over oil it.

Afe Oil?

I Probably Used Too Much. Where Did You Get The Oil From Afe?

I bought it From NADP up here in Edmonton. I was also told that S&B oil is very simaliar. I know a few guys using it , they have been for a while. I guess its a little easyer to get a hold of. My can is getting low so i just might try S&B my self if I have to.
