Hi! I have Uni pod filters I got from RPM. I got gas on them so I want to reoil them but I can't find the oil that came with them. I still have half a can of spray oil from K&N. So my question is, can I use K&N air filter oil on Uni pod air filters?

Thanks!

NO!   Foam filter oil only, the K&N stuff is too thin, it'll drain off the filter.

If it was for a foam filter, it'll work....

Any good foam filter oil will work. Any local bike shop should stock it. I like the PJ1 spray on filter oil and cleaner works great! Just don't motor oil if some one tells you to! Hope this helps.
