K&N air filter installed!!! 850 1995

francisira~

Good call! Yeah I just opened the air box again and before I wiped the oil off, I saw that some of the pleats on the filter were WHITE, indicating it wasn't properly oiled. The purple oil is supposed to help filtration, so I sprayed a few of the pleats with the K&N filter oil that comes with the kit. I wiped the black border of the filter and tried to wipe the pleates a little with a towel. Do I have to wait awhile before I drive so the oil dries up? Or will I be okay if I drive it now?

Thanks!
