I just discovered that the air filter just needs to be cleaned and reoiled. Should I do that or install the dry filter I purchased? The filter in it looks clean now. It did have a bug on it and that was all the debris.
If you have an OEM filter it should not have been oiled. If its an after market gauze type filter a good washing, air dry ( compressed air can/will cause damage) , oil sparingly and reinstall. Fram air filters are fine.
