[QUOTE="Catmonkey, post: 15980076, member: 124025"] So when you change your filter, all of the oil in filter, oil lines to and from the block and the oil cooler need to fill up with oil before you have oil pressure. It's a good idea to fill the filter with oil, but it's also not a bad idea to put your accelerator to the floor and give it a good long crank. The engine will not start as there are safeguards built into the system, but your engine spinning a few hundred rpm without oil is better than 1,000 rpm or more at fast idle without oil pressure.
