Question for those who change their own oil?
What do you use to loosen the old oil filter and tighten the new oil filter, if necessary to tighten more than hand tight? Do you have one of those cap wrenches that fit over the end of the filter? If so where did you buy(find) it? Pretty tight quarters on the 2000 CRV it looks like. I think it would be pretty easy with one of those end cap tools though. Any comments or information appreciated, thanks.

Use one of the craftmans ban wrenches find at sears small and large size and hand tighten only if you damage the inside of the filter it can cause problems .

Re: Question for those who change their own oil?
Would that be like the water resistant watch that you can wash your hands with it on but when you go swimming it fills up with water? Water resistant not water proof!!!

Re: Question for those who change their own oil?
What does this have to do with changing oil shows you just how easy simple minded people can be manipulated. This subject is closed, way off track.

Re: Question for those who change their own oil?
because if you tell someone to invest in a tool thats gonna be of less use then the one that will last alot longer why buy the wrong one insted of the right one also you cannot close threads and or subjects because you are not admin also the idea of a band type wrench is not bad i agree with you there but they also sell metal one that will outlast the rubber ones thats all im saying but if you wanna squash this then lets do because af is an info forum not a boxing ring so im just gonna go ahead and call a truce before this thing gets out of hand

Re: Question for those who change their own oil?
First I did not say buy it. If he did not have clearance for the cap wrench which is better. He can not get a metal ban wrench on it either the new ban you just feed it around slide in place and that it as. But if the cap will go on it with the socket wrench that's great. My god does congress need to get involved.

Re: Question for those who change their own oil?
Once again your high school mentality missed the analogy. You should get back in your 2005 Ferrari Testarossa
2007 Hummer H1 1993 Lamborghini Murcielago 1994 Lotus Esprit V8 and Troll your high school buddies. |
