If it's the stock paper one just toss it and buy a new one. If it's a K&N or something like that they sell kits to re-oil it after washing it down with water or something.

Using the K and N cleaning/recharge kit will be fine. You can pick it up at most local auto parts stores. Just follow the directions in the kit.
