Hey Guys!
So I went to change my oil to 20w50 because with the summer coming on, i'm starting to get lifter tick after driving for an hour or so..
No big deal.. jack the car up.. drain the oil.... go to change the filter.. (which I have done probably 6 or 7 times on my Z) and Hmmm its a little tight.... After another 4 hard attempts giving it my all .. I cant budge it loose!
Being as I have always done my filter loosening / tightening by hand I am not sure which type of "oil wrench" will work well with the car. The filter is not exactly easy to get to.. FSM states a special tool for this.. I would rather spend very little to get this bugger looose?
Any help with the type of tool I should get etc. would help save me $$$ and frustration.
Cheers!
