Actually, I didn't realize this before you ask.
I went to their VERY slow loading website and wandered till I found it.

Yup, it DOES use oil

So then, why do you suppose ol' whatsisname recommended it over the K&N ??

That's interesting. I also was certain that it was a dry filter and that's
why it was recommended. Are there two types?

I went to their website,
it's so small I had trouble reading it.
Looks like shrunken PDFs.

So I dunno.

Damned if I am going to change my monitor settings and hunt down my glasses
just to read a website on something I am not planning to buy for awhile.
If ever.

Maybe they DO have a dry one
You could ask ol Bill S. (check the big block group) which one he was
talking about

Green Filters are K&N copycat filters that are made in France. They
have a US distributor that promotes them here. It makes no sense why
someone would tell you to get rid of your K&N and buy a Green.

What type of gas do I have to run in this thing? The local station
sells 87 and 89 with ethanol. I can by octane boast cheap also should
I run that with the 87? or can I run the 89 with boost or should I
just go to a different station.

Thanks,
TC

92 or higher.....
You might want to go to the dealership and buy an owners manual.

Also this is for a friend.

I need to know the location of the alarm valet/override button. It is
suppose to be under the dash/steering column. I can't find it

Thanks in advanced.

Well, that will depend on several things.
On my 95 you pressed the little blinking light on the dash
It also had a reset button WAY under the dash, on a little black box.

On my CObra, I have no idea where it is, I would say get upsidedown under
the drivers side and look around till you see something with a button on it.
