Does anyone have a picture of the top of an oil filter for the m60? I just bought 8 quarts of oil and a fraam oil filter. Problem is i dont remeber the oil filter being open at the top...

ok, thats all i needed to know, thank you

It was better then the other choice they had, i cant even pronounce it, and idk how to spell it either. Sadly they were out of stock on bosch. And ill spell it fraam

wheni did my previous oil change i didnt remeber there being a hole at the top of the filter, the new one does. so i was clarifying. My old one must have a hole.

Then you wait until they come back in stock, not settle for shi.... I mean fram.

Oh well. I have a spare Alusil waiting.
