Since I've been away for a few years, things have changed a lot with oil filters as there are so many flavors available now. I haven't really had the need to log in because this site taught me so much stuff AND I have a serious stash of oil and oil filters mainly because of this site (still living off the K-Mart clearance stash from about 5 years ago. I really had to force myself away from the site because I constantly found myself buying oil and kept adding to my stash...to the point where my fiancée got mad at me and starting thinking I had a fetish for oil lol. Long story short, I still have close to 70k miles worth of oil stashed away, along with a bunch of Wix and PC filters (yeah I heard about the horror stories now smh...but I will still keep them). My new job is literally 5 minutes away from my house and it doesn't look like my stash is going anywhere soon
To my question, for you guys running high mileage oil filters (XG, etc.), do you drain the old oil out of the filter and put it back on between intervals or do you simply leave it in place and just drain the oil. I'm curious to see what people will say. Since this is BITOG, I'm sure I know what most will say.
