Oil Filter Housing Spring Assembly - pressure valve

[DesertBumAZ]

So I was trying to pry off that top little rubber o-ring and the stem came out of the cup, didn't break just popped out but didn't realize a spring and plastic waffer fell out too under the towel i was working on, got o-rings swapped and put it back together and found the spring and wafer on the bench. what order does it go back together? wafer then spring then stem? or spring then wafer then stem? I am assuming wafer,spring, then stem but want to make sure.

Thanks!

Sounds logical but can't confirm. I always grip the stem when pulling the O-Ring off.

That doc makes sense, if it is separated the wafer wont be pushing down and causing a bypass and low oil pressure, it seems like it would go in first, then the spring, and then stem. I already ordered a new one and ill look down in there with a flash light to check before i put it on and then I will have a spare. Thank you!

So i went and fired it up, pressure is all normal, went thru the start up cycle topped at like high 50s and then dropped down and settled at about 21.9. Think its good, but still going to check the new one once its here and swap it just to be safe.
