The oil filter element plays a vital role in the engine’s functioning by removing impurities and debris from the oil before it circulates through the system. Over time, these impurities can accumulate and clog the filter, obstructing the oil flow. Consequently, this can lead to decreased engine performance, increased fuel consumption, and even potential damage to internal engine components. This is where properly lubricating the oil filter element becomes essential.

Lubricating the oil filter element before installation serves multiple purposes. First and foremost, it prevents the filter from sticking to the engine housing. When the oil filter is replaced, the new element must be installed in the filter housing. Without lubrication, the rubber gasket on the filter can stick to the housing, making it difficult to remove during the next oil change. This can lead to unnecessary strain on the engine and can cause leaks or even damage the oil filter housing.

Furthermore, lubricating the oil filter element helps to extend its lifespan. When the filter is properly lubricated, it allows for easier removal during subsequent oil changes. This reduces the risk of damaging the filter, which can happen if it is forcefully removed due to sticking or lack of lubrication. Moreover, a lubricated filter reduces the chances of the rubber gasket tearing or getting damaged, which would lead to oil leakage and compromised efficiency.

In conclusion, lubricating the oil filter element is a crucial step when performing an oil change. By doing so, you ensure optimal engine performance, prevent potential damage to the engine, and extend the lifespan of the filter. Remember to always use the proper oil for lubrication and apply it evenly to the rubber gasket. Taking this small but significant step will contribute to the smooth functioning of your engine and enhance its overall efficiency.
