 Subject: K&N air filter problems

Message:
I was told to take my K&N air filter out of my 2001 Dodge Dakota 4.7l because the oil from the filter will contaminate an air sensor. The oil gets on the sensor and then dirt is attracted to the sensor and causes insulation barrier. Any hear about this?

who told you this? I think the K&N web site says this can happen if the filter is over-oiled.

That was a common problem with Chevrolet cars where people over oiled the filter and oil got sucked up and messed up a sensor. K&N filters come pre-oiled and when it comes time to clean your filter follow the instructions and you will never have a problem.

A good friend who is a ford mechanic told me that K&N filters do this.

Yes it could be a problem if we had mass air sensors in our snorkles But we don't.SOOOO it is not really a problem.Generic Motors and I believe
Ferd use Mass air sensors they could have problems
if the wire gets oil on it.

I agree. Don't worry about it with the Dodge Truck. That situation doesn't really apply to us but still don't over oil the filter.
