Re: What a dumb ***
Old-timey guys used to hold the old filter (if not gritty) with the O-ring
side up and press the new filter O-ring to it. The oil that spilled when
the old filter was spun out is enough to lube the new one, and there'll
be no dry spots.

Re: What a dumb ***
Honestly, I have never seen instructions on oil filter changing. I didn't
even know there were instructions. I went outside last night after reading
your post to look on the box for instructions and sure enough, there was a 5
step "Pictures", no text on what to do.
I have never done this in the past but of course, will in the future.
It was the R&R guys who installed the other filter (It was a Fram Filter)
which left the O-Ring in place and when I took it off It was quite easy to
twist off which I thought was un-ususal. Anyway, don't know if they used
oil on the Fram filter O-Ring or not. If they didn't, add that to the
tackyness of the new paint I can understand why it didn't come off.
Especially since the filter wasn't tightened down that much.
