If they're red and wrapped in plastic, they're oiled.
So far, I've got them on the mg, the triumph, the tiger, the suburban, the
mini, the morris, the Riley, and the highlander.
All came ready to go. I suppose its POSSIBLE they sell some somewhere that
aren't. I buy them on line.
Perhaps k&n sells a cheap, non oiled filter over the counter and the premier
ready to go variety only to me! ;-)
