dry starting 850 1995

I had my oil changed at Mr Lube. Along with a tranny change $150can all synthetic. No Flushing. I asked on the tranny to get it flushed and they looked lost. So I just had it changed.
I dont know what oil filter they put on but I presume it wasnt Mann or Volvo.
Probably some cheapy filter. I never took it into account.
I didnt know about the drain back on those filters. That sounds like it stops the oil from draining back to the pan. So no intial lubrication on the startup. The engine has a little over 200km or 130miles on it. No fluid losses. Probably burns abit lean though (vacuum lines) which lit up my check engine. exhaust tip has carbon deposits on it. (although it could be from letting the turbo go alot)
Thanks... doug
