What does it mean if there is oil in my air filter?

If you have a K %26amp; N or equivallent cold air intake there will be oil in the filter. There shouldn't be a lot of oil...it shouldn't be dripping all over the place, but there will be oil. If there is a lot, then your PCV valve should be replaced.What does it mean if there is oil in my air filter?
it could mean your PCV is clogged...but most likely it means you are getting blow by..this is caused by weak piston rings..may be time to trade in or think about doing an engine rebuild.What does it mean if there is oil in my air filter?
PVC valve need changed
Depending on how much oil is in your air filter if there is only smear nothing to worry about. But if there is a lot then start looking for another engine.
You probably don,t know this But there is a little oil on the filter anyway , To catch foreign particles good luck, Hope this helped.
