    Some people don't have the mechanical skills most of us have, we are enthusiasts, we like this crap. If the OP is confused or doing something wrong, lets help, not belittle.
    Lets see if he is indeed looking at the right things.

    So... like an oil filter SNORKEL?

    Genius! Send it to marketing. You'll make BOATLOADS of cash in the Overlander market.

    I agree. May be a troll maybe not and just a new person developing that initial interest on how things work. Give the OP a break for crying out loud.

    you uns feel a sharp pain in your cheekbone where the hooks got you?... Ok, Ok, can't take it... I'm in, and must mention... I feel like Super-Mechanic-Man today cause I (for one) do indeed know where the oil filter is located, without pics... for you guys that need pics, it's right at the end of the fallopian tubes under the hood.:hattip:

    Dont think so,you just think it was unused since no oil came out of it,thats because it drained back into the engine since the filter is upside down mounted.

    I have a similar problem. I went to fill my truck with gas, but the tank was full! It hasn't used any for the last two fill-ups

    My last oil change, I didn't even need the bottle that I put under the filter drain thing. Not a drop of oil dripped out of the filter. I assumed because it all drained in the 5-10 minutes that the truck sat after shutting off. Obviously the filter was used, there was a small coating of oil on the inside but none dripped out
