I read somewhere that I could clean the air filter with gas instead of replacing it?

I made the mistake of putting in 3 liters of oil instead of 2.5 when I replaced my oil filter and changed my oil, so the oil overflowed into the airfilter case... thus without realizing it, evertime i was going uphill, my air filter would be slightly immersed in motor oil. Now my bike stalls every once in a while while im at a stop light... (i have to drain some oil today). Is there way to clean the air filter and put it back?

Also, I just moved to San Diego and saw a bunch of SDiegans on the list of people with savages and wondering if anyone/everyone wanted to get together to ride?

Thanks!!
Kevin
