Hey /o/ currently in the middle of cleaning my air filter am

All you do is spray it with cleaner, rinse with water, wait for it to dry, evenly apply fresh oil
That's it

>>15450103
I don't know the answer to what you're asking but why did you choose a pic of transmission gears?

This is a pic of the outside.

>>15450137
That's glue, it's holding the air filter together.

>>15450140

>>15450292
are you guys fucking retarded
has noone here seen a fucking cone filter before? how can any of you call yourselves car enthusiasts
this is yet another prime example that /o/ is the worst place to visit for anything car related

yes OP, thats glue, leave it that way. look up some videos on youtube on how to apply new oil properly. if the filter is too dirty consider getting a new one, they're like 10$

>>15450292
It's an intake filter for an aftermarket intake.
>>15450115
You don't oil those filters.
Fucking boomers I swear.

>>15450405
Yes..you do "those filters" have a looser filter pattern and require oil to capture smaller particles that will otherwise burn up your pistions, when you wash the filter the degreaser you choose to use strip any of the oil the factory puts on there.

so yes i would oil it lightly

>>15450494
No. Stop being retarded. 90 percent of those filters don't need to be oiled. Especially AEM ones. Only ones that need to be oiled is K&n. I always used AEM DRYFLOW filters with my cars and never had problems. I even used their brand cleaning solution. This isn't the early 90's you don't need to be sucking up filter oil in your engine either their is a reason why those filters are built with those synthetic fibers that are weaved together like that paired with a mesh screen. So you talking about those small particles is equivalent to dust. So there's no need to oil. You just clean it.

Keep to the AEM ones.

K&N filters have 1 million mile warranty on them. Gotta clean and re-oil them occasionally.
