Does not priming the oil filter effect the engine, when changing engine oil?

what do you mean priming putting oil in the filter before you put it on I never do and I've never had a problemDoes not priming the oil filter effect the engine, when changing engine oil?
If you can fill the filter and then install it, that's best. While the oil will get to the valvetrain quickly in summer, it will be seconds in the winter, even with synthetic oil. The purpose of priming the filter is to have oil get to the valvetrain ASAP. Side mounted filters can be primed, but only to less than half. Most filters have an ';anti-drain back'; valve to prevent oil starvation at startupDoes not priming the oil filter effect the engine, when changing engine oil?
i think this is another one of those things that makes a lot of sense, but in reality makes little difference. while it is true your engine will not be getting oil for a split second while the filter is filling up, it is also true that the bearings still have a layer of oil on them from when it ran last, i don't believe the engine is actualy starved, the time is so brief and i think there is enough oil already on the parts to bridge this gap.
No, but remember to top off the oil level after it runs a minute or 2, a lot of engines have the filter sideways so they can't be primed, the only time an oil system should be primed is after rebuild.
no, when you add oil to the motor it will flow into it anyway, you are alright. Oily time you may be concerned is on a larger motor, but on a typical car or truck you are OK.
It won't hurt your engine. On some cars such as the Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.0L I6 it is impossible to prime it since the oil filter is mounted horizontal.
no hurtie your engine
