In addition and although it is not official Lycoming policy, I was strongly encouraged not to install an oil saturated filter on an injected engine, use a dry air filter only. Apparently any oil which finds its way into the injection system can lead to very expensive repairs. Have any of you researched air filters and gotten tech data sheets from filter manufacturers?
