OK....You have to oil your K&N filter. On 99-06 trucks with a stock replacment filter it takes a little under 2 ounces of oil after cleaning it with the K&N filter cleaner/water/drying.

The K&N filter is very thin & porous, It relies on the oil to trap the dirt that whould otherwise end up in your engine.
