I'll keep mounting them with no oil except on the gasket, to keep everything clean(er)

What brand filter do you use?

For your TSIO 360, assuming that yours isn’t a Rocket, just fill the filter with clean oil before you thread it on.  For 520 and 550 Continentals you can pre fill the filter.  For Lycomings the filter also can’t be filled, unless is has a remote filter installed vertically.

No, my question was because he showed a picture of an oil filter with the threads down and said he pre-filled it.

On my airplane each, fill it with oil, screw in on

If you are referring to me, I said I had not figured it out, but others may know how.

I had to re read my post, I fat fingered it,  it was supposed to say for 520/550 you can’t pre fill the oil filter.
