Found a cool filter wrench

[94Vert]

All of my vehicles have different size filters so I am always looking for one tool I can use. I've tried those strap things and they suck. There isn't one that can change to all the sizes I need. Until I found this baby.

This thing is awesome. Our mustangs use a pretty big filter at least compared to my taurus, and this thing changes to fit both. I bought it at auto zone for like 10 bucks.

thats cool...the first time i changed the oil on my car, none of the wrench things the place had were the right size...so i just stabbed the filter with a screwdriver to twist it off. :rollinglaugh:

i use the strap if you know how to do it i have never had a problem?? :dunno: i spend the cash on the filters that have the fitting on the bottom so i can slip on a wrench and twist it off... they have the pliers you can use too there nice but run about 30 bucks

i always though you were not suppose to over tighten them.. just till it gets tight and then just a little more. needless to say, i have never had one leak and this is how i do it on my cobra, my ranger and the old ladys honda. hand tight, so they come off nice and easy.........
