Oil filter

ANDYKNOWS · Mar 1, 2009

Changed it last week, what a pia. the last three times I.ve changed it ,I,ve nearly dropped the one thats coming off, all covered in oil, from above and below. If only that diff wasnt in the way.
Wonder how many people have dropped it and got oil everwhere.

I always undo one turn and leave to drain, wrap a cloth around the filter and remove. I learned by my mistake many years ago.

I do similar but with an ice cream tub, works really well and no oil on yours truly.

did mine on sunday, previous nob who serviced it tightened the filter up with a chain wrench, could see the marks on it. Ended up tearing it in half trying to get it off and got covered.

I stabbed the oil filter with screw driver and let it drain into oil tub for 10 min and then just unscrew it
