ok people,
i have done 2 oil changes since my new engine was put in...and have noticed that when i take my oil filter off, which is a K&N unit, there is no oil in it. its oily, yeah, like oil has been in there, but where'd it go? arent these things supposed to have an anti-drain back valve. When i change other cars, ex. my girl's jeep, oil comes spewing out of the filter...
oh all this was done when the oil had already been drained out incase your wondering.

The antidrainback valve must not be very good for that particular brand filter.
