b#####d oil filter!

[joshbl]

I have never.... had an oil filter so bloody stubborn. The useless chain thing crushed and sliced it. The slightly better tool just slipped. Screw driver through it just bent and folded the casing and the expensive tool i borrowed can grip it but no way in hell can i turn it.

So it's been a bit of a poo day

Watch you don't mark the sealing surface on the block with the chisel eh.

Good point, that can only end badly. I'll just have to go hong kong phooey on it with the last tool I used....... or captain caveman
