What can I use for air filter oil or should I use the traxxas brand? The guy at my local Hobby shop suggested wd-40 but I have also heard not to use it!! What should I use?
Any Help? []

The standard traxxas stuff is good, that's what I use and really like, it seems to be kinda sticky, so it will really get all the small dust particles. I also have a bottle of air filter oil, the brand doesn't really matter. As for WD-40 I've never used it, and I probably wouldn't recommend it either. Wd-40 would be better to use as an after-run oil, not air filter oil.

for my aif filters i use wd-30 its thin enough to let air through but thick enough to catch all the dirt and debree pour it on there and squeez excess oil out used it for years. never failed me

Air filter oil or 3 in 1 oil.

I don't think WD-40 is thick enough.

You can use castor oil, its think enough to catch those fine dust particles and is great for increasing you engine life!! Can be had at a pharmacy............

I use something like I use on full size offroad foam filters [link=https://www.amsoil.com/storefront/afo.aspx]clicky[/link]

Pretty cheap and designed to be used as foam filter oil.
