"People try to outsmart the scenario by filling the filter with oil, they don't know what they don't know, and that increases the priming time of the entire oil system by at least 2-3 X more than if the filter was installed dry.

The reason for pre-filling the filter with The IMS Solution, is because the plain bearing rides on a film of oil - if you don't pre-fill the filter the bearing will be running dry for that much longer (the time it takes to fill the filter with oil)...

"This is why ore- filling an oil filter on a freshly built, never fired engine is a bad idea, as you have an air filled system between the pump and the filter, and in the case of the M96, this is a long, complex pathway to have filled with air.
