so you bought a 94 ex for 100 bucks??? lol..was it like totaled or something? any hoo..does the filter look dirty to you at all? do you know if it was water or..does it smell like another liquid? I mean..I'd still use it if its in good condtion. Wash it yourself just to make sure tho.

You bought a whole car for 100 and you are worrying about a 10 dollar filter..... does the car run or is the engine hydrolocked?

To answer your questions, you can re-use an air filter if you just clean it and dry it.
