[QUOTE="MikeinFresno, post: 14398, member: 40"] no toil is a veg based oil vs petro based oil for the others. They dont mix. So you are supposed to keep the filters oiled and cleaned with the proper and different products. I had a used filter I got that looked good, but was dirty. I tried cleaning it with solvent, but it just wouldnt come clean. It stayed dark and greasy feeling. It hit me on the second attempt that maybe it had no toil on it. I used soap and water and it came out clean as new. I threw it in the trash. I used no toil in the past and had fine gritty dirt/dust in the air boot. I have seen thru the years on the net about this fine dust or when the filter gets real dirty or real wet it then lets dirt thru. So I quit using it. [/QUOTE]
