Thanks Steve, that was kind of the way I was leaning, I usually
clean the prefilter in a mason jar half full of gasoline, then let
it dry, the oil just seems to gum stuff up.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Personally, no, I do not oil the foam if it's
sitting on top of a pleated paper filter. It's only there to
catch the big chunks. On a mower, it gets all the long pieces
of grass and other macroscopic-sized stuff and leaves the paper
filter to do its job on the micro stuff. In that prefilter
role, oil doesn't help.

was just wondering whether you guys oil your lawn mower

not, I usually do but it does seem to clog up the paper

all it's in Kohlers best interest to sell filters.<br>
