Generator air filter cleaning
In the handbook of my Yamaha EF2000iF generator says to clean the air filter 'with a solvent'. Does anyone know what kind of solvent is best for this?

Examples cleaners & oils
I would also use an oil that is made for air filters. You will find that it is more tacky than engine oil.
My manual says you can use SAE 20 motor oil. A guy at the auto parts store said SAE 20 is very thin, more like water. Maybe you're talking about the same thing, just describing it differently?
The oils that are made for wet filters usually have more of a tacky feel to them. They are different then engine oil. Yes, as your manual says, you can use engine oil if you like.
