I've found that Denatured alcohol also works well. I clean/brush with
denatured, then spray with graden hose from the inside out, then let dry and
oil.

At the bike shops, we use gasoline or parts wash solvent and wash
it out and then blow it out
with shop air. work from the inside to the outside (reverse the direction
the air flowed into
the unit).

You should, it's the best air filter oil out there. It's incredibly
sticky stuff. Which is
what makes it work. Using engine oil and such just doesn't do a good
job on a gauze filter.
The only oil I've ever met that might work is rock drill oil. And
it isn't any cheaper then
filter oil.
