No Oil in Oil Filter

[Finnon]

what would cause an oil filter to not contain any oil when its removed during a service?

i had drained the sump already but theres always some oil in a filter when its removed.

Thread moved, this isn't really a 7M-GE technical question.

A cheap filter with a weak or no existant anti drain back valve. Gravity helps it on its way.
