The oil that I got was more of a fluid, somewhat simliar to umm... the oil I use for my paintball gun (which is alot more expensive then the K&N crap) or the sharpening oil for knives. Using motor oil on your air filter would be a very very bad thing.
The fluid servers several purposes. It conditions the filter material, fill in small holes, and makes the cloth-filter fire retardant. Splurge the $10 and get it, it should be good for 3 or 4 cleanings.
Which reminds me, my filter needs to be cleaned.
