05 700 efi oil filter
Anybody willing to share the brightest ideas for getting the old oil filters off........I know their no supposed to be very tight but it's a tight little spot there.....I think the cup type wrench would be the best but I haven't found one for this size filter and not even sure if there's enough room to get it in there.....Didn't mean to hijack the thread........

I got a WalMart cup style one and used a bench grinder to take the outside lip off of it.
Just slide it in a little, if you put it on too far it's even harder to get off.
WOW, that could be taken a few different ways !!!!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

taken from the oil filter test:
"One odd thing about Purolator's filters is a string that is always wrapped around the filter element. I assume that this is there to hold the element in place while the glue in the end caps cures. Of all the Purolator-based filter I tested, there was one (the ProLine) that had filter element damage from this string. Although it was one of five tested, I am weary of this design. Even though the element was crushed a bit, it was not ripped."
just in case you didn't click the link and scroll down to the Purolator section...
