oil filter

[Mista Juice]

If you get it on by hand you should be able to get it off by hand.

The first oil change I did on my Lude sucked, I couldn't get the filter off.

I tried wrenches, strap wrench, everything.

I ended up stabbing the filter with a big ass screwdriver and twisting it off that way. Works well if ya ever get one stuck.

holy shit.. i couldnt stand taking off the very first oil filters on new cars.. i think they must put some sort of adhesive sealant shit on the gaskets or something when they are built.. fucking ridiculous..

there were a few others that were just WAY too damn tight and the gasket was obviously not oiled before install.. ive destroyed quite a few filters in my day because of that.. ugh..

If you get it done at a shop sometimes they will put it on really tight so it will discourage the do it your selfers.

I've had to stab a few with a screw driver at my last job. But at home, I don't even own an oil filter tool.
I'd hate to have to use a tool on a CB or any car with a way out of the way filter. Worked on a Z31, could hardly see the damn filter, and couldn't see the mount, I had to use my hands to "see" everything. lol And damn it made a big mess.

I got a claw looking thing, works really good. The filter come off with no problem.
