WTK Oil filter removal
« on: March 07, 2006, 08:53:50 PM »
Help! I am trying to change my oil for the first time. I havd crushed my filter with a strap type remover. Is there any way to get this thing off other that a factory tool?

I use a large pair of channel locks to loosen the oil filter.

Then when you replace it with your K&N oil filter, just use a 17 mm wrench on the handy hex that is on the end.

I dont get it, I take off most oil filters with my hand. I can get about 90% of them lose without a tool, for the hard ones the strap tool works well. 

I even bet my dad lunch one day I could pull the filter off the company trackhoe and it had not been changed in a year.

His new dodge is one I could not get, no way to grab it, you have to use a end tool on it cause there is just no room.

Just reach in there grab it and twist, they come right off :)
