  • Removing oil filter without draining the oil

    Is it possible to renew the oil filter without draining the oil because I recently change the oil but couldn't do the filter because my local motor factor sold me the wrong size oil filter so is it possible to do?

    yes, but it not the best thing to do as the old oil in the filter will have mixed with the new.

      Yes but I put new oil in yesterday but didn't have the right filter so I put the old one back on I just wanted to know if I can put a new filter on without draining the oil?

        yes you can, it will make no difference draining the sump.
        if the filter is the upright type fill it with oil before you fit it.
        if you can, disable the ignition and crank the engine over till you have oil pressure.
