    I have a 2010 tundra 5.7, just got it, looked like it had new oil in it, decided to change it anyway,pulled the filter out and it was really dirty put in a new filter got everything done, and realized there was supposed to be a tube in the middle of the filter, mines missing, question is can I run it like that until I change the oil again or do I need to remove the filter and replace the tube now. Thanks

    Unless you do not, the filter will implode because of suction, and you WILL have a bad day!
