Question on First Oil Change on a 240D

[airfoill]

I just purchased my first 240D (and my first M-B for that matter) and will pick it up Thursday. It is a 1982 year model with 103K miles on it.

I also bought a Haynes manual at the local auto parts store because I would like to change the engine oil when I do pick it up. I noticed in the Haynes manual that after you drain the engine oil from the oil pan and replace the plug, you also remove the filter cartidge, which is what I expect. What I do not know is whether some residual oil remains in the filter housing and does that residual oil drain back into the engine or do you have to remove it with some sort of pump? The Haynes manual does not say if residual oil stays in the housing or whether you have to pump any residual oil out. Comments would be appreciated.

THanks
