K&N Filters In Cold Climate
I'm a big fan of K&N air filters for their breathability and durability. But I am interested in the viewpoints of others regarding the performance of an oil treated cotton medium when the temperature drops.
Let me start by saying that I live in Maine (USA). The temperatures here are routinely well below freezing for five months of the year. Now we all know what happens to oil at cold temperatures: it gets thicker. So the question is, will the "thickening" of the oil coating in a K&N filter significantly affect the flow of air through the element? Thanks in advance for your thoughts. |

No problemo
As I had K&N for the last 15 years and I live in Quebec and the weather is as cold as Maine and never had any problem with air intake on any of my cars
