I am changing oil and got stuck at the oil strainer. The outer piece has come off and i have removed the paper washer that was under it. It was not easy to pull the outer piece off.
I removed what I will call an odd nut that connects to a stud that is now sticking out of the retained portion of the oil strainer. The strainer appears to be aluminum. I can not dislodge this inner piece to get to the strainer and to complete the job as intented. Is this a common issue? Any solution/ Naturally not forcing the issue. |

Yeah, been there as well. There's nothing secret holding it on, the flange and and gasket are just stuck to the case. Just take your time and work it free. As already noted, if you damage it a replacement won't break the bank. It has been a while since I had a strainer get really stuck, but I believe I used a gasket scraper to get it free.
