I use K&N recharge kits to clean and oil my AFE filter. All the brands of cleaning kits are basically the same. A mild soapy solution for cleaner and filter oil. Only difference is the dye in the oil.

I have no idea. Never heard that. I just stick to what I know works.

I always use the aFe restore kit for mine. I can pick it up locally for $13. I would try to find it near you, because if you order it online it's aerosol, you'll pay $15 for shipping.

i always use motor bike filter oil and cleaner you get big aerosol cans and it always worked for me like SHU873 said its just soap and oil

I get the K&N kits at my local NAPA for $10.
