Hi

I've cleaned my air filter first with petrol then rinse it inside out with water.
It's now gently drying since 22h00 last night.

The air filter is the Aircharger type.

Do I need to oil it after and if yes do I need to use the specila K&N Oil or could I use my trusted Mobile 1

Thank for your help

Jack

TBH I'd just use any other oil that is used on a cotton filter eg the same sort of stuff produced by Green
