Grip firmly at the base, think of England and twist.
Oh and then you can fit your new oil filter

I have a faint memory, that pash once made a list of suitable devices. Maybe that's still present in the archive or take a look a the how-to section. |

It should, although tight, come off by hand. If not you could, I know not a top line thing to do, use a screwdriver. K&N filters have a hex head on top so you can use a spanner or socket. Dont forget to fill the filter and oil the seal. |

And, when you put the new one on, tighten it by hand... |

Strap wrench works fine for me, on a extension bar.

I got my socket type wrenches - Tuber and Fueller, from Halfords. If the filter is on stupid tight, then drill a hole through the filter wrench and then stick a rod (6" nail etc) through the whole lot. |
