Yea i had a af1 on my truck for about 130000 miles , cleaned it everytime i changed oil an never had a problem at all.

 

Really, if they were that saturated with oil they wouldn't let in any dirt or air. What it all boils down to is if the user over oils the filter the possibility of the maf fouling is raised.

 

Exactly right.. As in so many things if folks will just read the directions and use common sense they'd never have a problem.

I just think that sometimes people hear the words "oiled filter" and, not understanding what it means, just recoil in horror.. lol

BTW, Hook 'Em 'Skins!! (or whatever y'all say).. Knock the Vikings out of the picture tonight!

 

I'm hoping so! Wearing the jersey!

 

Man...

Okay, this is a hijack of the thread, but what a dilemma! LOL

The 'Skins must win next week to get into the playoffs.. The Cowboys have home field locked up throughout. Yet we hate the Skins more than bitter death.. Do the 'Boys play to win or just show up and let the Skins get in?

I'm gonna say that Dallas plays everyone who's healthy and goes for 14-2.

Though the way both teams have played the last 3 weeks or so I wouldn't put it past the Skins to lay the smackdown on us..

But it won't happen..

 

The Skins should have already beaten Dallas once this season. Fact. The Skins will beat them next week no matter who Dallas puts on the field.

 

Oh man, you're eating the cheese that the genius Parcells warns against.. LOL

 

Is it this stanky *** gouda?

 

What are you guys talking about?

Dry Media Filters have my vote . I've used both. Personaly feel more comfortable using a good quality dry filter. Oiled filters, just didn't trust them myself..

 

wow i have been using k&n intakes now on four vehicles and for over 10 years. never had one problem with the oiled filter.

 

LMAO!!

That's freakin' perfect!!

I just hope the Dolphins know what they're gettin' into.. Well, actually, who cares?.. Dolphins

 

I've been running an AEM dry-flow cone on my K&N CAI for a while now, and I love it so far. Not that the oiled filters are bad (if oil is all over the TB, then you way over-oiled it), but the dry-flows are so easy.

Cleaning is a snap with a bucket, and no having to hassle with oil.

 

I've got an S&B intake kit in my truck, Love it, got it for a lot less than K&N and have had nearly identical results as my previous vehicles with K&N's.

 

i just put a AFE CAI on yesterday, it's a dry filter. i like it.

I had a K&N drop in with my 2000 Ranger that I put in when the truck had 15 miles. (Literally drove it from the dealer to Autozone to get the K&N). I put 100K on the truck and went through one MAF, and it had NOTHING to do with the K&N, the sensor wires coming out of the MAF broke off... This was at 85K miles. The MAF still looked good and clean when we replaced it. My F150 has a K&N drop in, and at 54K miles, and so far so good. I dropped the K&N in at 18K when I bought the truck.

The trick is knowing HOW to properly oil an oiled filter. Too much oil, and it gets pulled through the filter media and goes down and gums up MAF sensors pretty easily...

Yeah, you can avoid this with a dry element filter...
