Oil filter unused when doing the oil change

I don’t know,,,,, I think he might pull a @willydidwhat

 

I’ll bite. Cmon guys it isn’t friday there for it can’t be a troll.

 

They live under bridges and only come out on Fridays .

I always changed the oil in the mornings. When the Tacoma was cold. I always used non original filter like Fram. The last oil change I used original filter.
Today, when I arrive home, I loose the filter... oil started to drop. Good news! So, maybe needed an original filter or because I changed the oil in the morning, gravity cleaned the filter..
thank anyway

Some of them sleep in & don't wake up until Monday.

 

This is the issue. Your oil should be operating temperature when you change it (otherwise you really don’t drain enough out).

 

Meh. Im on team cold oil changes. Everything has settled in the pan overnight, so why would I get less out? Also changing a hot oil filter on a 3rz is a thing of nightmares. You guys with a 4.0 have it too easy.

 

I always drain hot on every vehicle I have worked on but doesn't really make a discernible difference whether draining hot or cold.

 

OP is currently....

 

Sure did, been following since the 1st post just never subd

 

Pics or it didn't happen

 

When did @BartMaster1234 become a Toyota parts guy?


Lucky.

 

Thailand or Japan spec filter?

 

Because viscosity. Oil is much less viscous when cold.

 

So it drains slower then lol. Doesnt mean some magically stays in there. I put 5.25 qts in, get 5.25 qts out.

 

But is the oil cold when you run the engine? Take the 'filter' off (no one uses them anyway) and have someone start the truck while you look directly at the oil filter mounting plate. Then report back if the oil is hot or cold to the touch.
