It very well could be that the filter was oiled when cleaned or from OEM.

Why does my 6.5 hp kohler lawn mower keep pulling oil into carb air filter

Its to stop the dust blocking the filter. The filter should be cleaned with petrol every 4 to 6 months to remove the dust & oil build up, cleaned in/with petrol and re-oiled. Its also good to clean the filter housing each time you clean the filter

Need to tune up my truck what will i need to replace

Hi Jeffery, You forgot to say if it has a petrol or diesel engine. In the case of a petrol engine, replace the the oil filter, fuel filter and air filter, and the spark plugs. Other than these items there is little else to do, as the engine performance is entirely controlled by the management system. The only difference between diesel and petrol powered vehicles during service, is that with diesel there are no spark plugs. Remember in the case of a diesel to fill the fuel filter with clean fuel before fitting it to the housing. Doing so will help in expelling the air from the system and make start up easier. Also fill the oil filter with the same multi grade engine oil used in service, so that on start up the engine is lubricated more quickly. Regards John

My volvo v70 has failed the french mot test due to high emissions ; the cat con is only 2 years old ; what is the best way to approach this prob

CHANGE THE OIL TO TOP QUALITY OIL THEN CHANGE THE SPARK PLUGS TO BETTER SPARK MOST PROBABLY IRIDIUM THEN CHANGE THE AIR FILTER TO A BMG AIR FILTER (THIS AIR FILTER DOESNT EVER NEED CHANGING) THEN FILL THE PETROL (IF IT NOT DIESEL) WITH HIGH OCTANE (98ron) AND ADD RACING OCTANE BOOST TO THE PETROL TANK AND THAT WILL SOLVE THE PROBLEM AND YOUR CAR WILL GO A HELL OF ALOT BETTER YOULL SAVE ON FUEL ALSO THE IRIDIUM SPARK PLUGS DONT HAVE TO BE CHANGED FOR AT LEAST 100.000KLM HOPFULLY THE PETROL AND MORE AIR GOING IN WILL HELP

Volkswagon carravelle failed m.o.t on gas emmisions tried lamba sensor no improvement any ideas. 1995 model

is it petrol or diesel?-if its petrol try removing air filter-if its diesel you will have to change oil filter,oil,oil filter and fuel filter in one job lot-this usually works! if not as a last resort find the diesel screw on the fuel pump and turn it down(anti clockwise i think)-note how many turns-you will notice a horrible loss in power,but you can reset it after the test,because no-one will care then
