I was just wondering if there is a safe substitute for the oil used on air filters???

I'm just curious, why are you looking to use something other than air filter oil?
Most people that use something different, get it because for the same price, you get like 10x as much.
yep I used to... then I got a 280 dollar engine And uh i use filter oil now, with a motor saver filter. Stickier stuff and it works a lil better.
Don't worry about it GusMax... water works just fine on a $280 engine
I use a K&N filter on my 1:1 truck, but I'm not sure if that type of spray is comparable to the oil I put on my Motor Saver filter. The MS oil (blue) is much stickier and I would assume better at trapping the smallest particles.
It is stickier but the K&N stuff seems to stay more wet. I use a outerwears over my motorsaver also. Either is better than neither. LOL
:thumbup:
I've had pretty good luck with the MS oil, but I probably use a little too much. It probably shouldn't drip off the element huh? (Ok, not THAT bad, but you get the idea).
I just picked up the HPI spray, gona try it out this afternoon.
