Default Did I mess up my filter?

I have a pro-flow intake with a K&N filter. I took out the filter to clean it and I used gas to rinse out the oil. Then I was told not to do that, did I "F" up my filter? I immediatly rinsed it out with water, but now I am worried that I might have messed it up. Any suggestions?

The best thing to use it hot soappy water.
Using gas isn't recommened on a paper filter. Rinse it out with hot water and soap and let it dry. Check it out once it's dry and see if the paper got distroyed or damaged by the gas.
