For those of us in the West, we are on fire. Our skies have been orange for the past week and our cars are covered in ash. It's so bad that I can feel the ash in my throat when I walk from my front door to my work car about 20ft away. It's that bad. My Si is not my daily and is garaged, so I' haven't driven it out of fear that it'll jack up my new Mishimoto intake. They use oiled filters, and with it being new, I'm concerned about it getting clogged up too soon.
Is this a valid concern? I've searched this forum for how to care for them, but those threads turn into a thread about oiled vs. dry filters so I'm hoping this thread doesn't go down that path. YouTube talks about the 15k-20K mark and washing them with soap and re-oiling. So my question is if there are interim cleaning methods between oiling sessions for the harsh environment I'm currently in.
Thanks in advance.
