West coast, what are you referring to when you mention not being able to pre fill the K&N oil filter, I fill the filters I have before I put them on, do they make more than one type race filter ?

The filter I had been using was redesigned to were you could not pour oil in it and be full before you screw it on the motor.I will have to look up the filter # maybe there is another K&N filter I could use. Will get back to this later this weekend after some research.

The filter you are describing is very common in industrial equipment, especially on tow motors. Perhaps you have the wrong filter or more than one option.

JUNK, far better oil filters available like Wix and I now use a K&P Engineering oil filter.

I've used them for years. Never any issues with the K&N filters.

Have used them for years,never a problem. For me the 1" hex comes in handy w/headers etc.,&can buy them at track, D1 racer JK is a dealer. Go PATS!
