how do i avoid a dry start?
Well I got the dry starts after the Second oil change by the Dealer. Now I changed the Oil to Synthetic and KN filter and I still get the dry stars sound.
I will test the Fram Filter and see if it works.

Hold the gas pedal all the way to the floor and then attempt to start. It will not start with the gas pedal floored, but it will crank, allowing the oil pump to prime. I do it when I change the oil, to prevent a dry start on the first fire after changing it. I typically crank for 10 sec.
I've been using fram since I started driving. Then they came out with the tough guard and grip stuff on the end!!! Never once had a single problem/dry start outta any vehical I've owned! Very happy and I never plan on changing it up.

Here it was like $15 for one bottle. It claims that it will stop Engine noise. It reads that because of the metal used in newer engines you get the noise. That Lucas Stab will stop all the noises and protect the engine.
I've had good luck with Wix filters (sold at Napa as Napa gold filters).
