[FC] Washable air filters conclusions

[Rad Davis]

The dirt motorcycle crowd use washable foam filters and a special red 
sticky oil, which feels like a mixture of castor oil and STP.  The oil 
is bright red so you can tell when the filter is dirty - it quits being 
red.  The stuff is available in squeeze bottles and spraycans.
