I’ve tried various cup like tools, but they are either to big or small. Ian karr has one in his video that looked good. Not sure where he got it. What do you guys use?

When all else fails, I put the oil pan under it and hammer a screw driver through it. Turn clockwise

QUOTE(Shivers @ Jan 25 2022, 12:28 PM)  When all else fails, I put the oil pan under it and hammer a screw driver through it. Turn clockwise You have to be careful doing it this way...the first time I tried to remove the filter with various wrenches failed and I tried this...only to fail and have a car with no oil and a stuck filter. I ended up getting one of those removal tools that has a chain and it compressed the busted filter quite a bit. I had to wrap it around as close to where it attached to the engine and cursed up a storm to get it off. Ironically, my daughter did the same thing when she overtightened her filter and she used a screwdriver without talking to me first). In my defense, the prior owner also was unable to remove the filter so it wasn't me that tightened it. |
