    Oiled are for MAP based systems. Dry are for MAF based systems.

    So you use the filter for the most sensitive sensor. The MAF.

    My Tacoma does as well. :cool:

    If you dont want to throw parts at it... you need to look at fuel trims during idle and cruise.

    If you have high fuel trims at idle look for a vacuum leak

    If you have hi trims at cruise or under load look at fuel delivery

    Now THIS is why I came here today: Looking at my options now that my 2 years free maintenance has ended, and was tempted by the oiled filter option. But now I know better and will avoid needless pain down the road. Thanks, all.
    Now, do I change over to full synth oil or not... Oh who am I kidding, of course I do!
