I know, "such a dumb question" but I want to tap the vast store of experience in this forum; so here goes. I have a 1950 Ford with a 6-cylinder engine. I am executing a "first" oil change in my recently rebuilt engine with a little over 600 miles since the rebuild. Alas, it has been many, many years since I had to change an oil filter cartridge rather than the screw-in filter. My problem is the residual oil remaining in the filter reservoir doesn't drain out after an overnight elapsed time; I had to siphon it out of the housing with a suction tube. How does the oil flow through the filter? and is there some technique to drain the used oil in the filter housing in a more efficient manner? In a anticipation of some words-of-wisdom, I thank all responses to further my education/experience.
