that screwdriver trick is pretty smart, wish Id thought about that a few hours ago after cursing dafck outta my truck when I couldnt get it off.

Quick question for ya.. is it safe to tighten the new 1 on by hand? ..and just curious how many quarts do u put in yours.

@ratio3224 Hand tighten with 1/4 more turn.. 5 quart jug works pretty good.

75K miles on the clock .. all is well

Your the first person I've heard/seen tag the filter as you do. Intriguing thing to do.

In my opinion when you own your car you can choose whatever you put in it. Oil and Filters will always be up to someones preference.

yeah to avoid the oily mess when you change oil on the Taco after you drain the oil turn on the motor for 3 sec to let the oil cycle and and remove the filter and it should come out clean.

You should use a toyota oil filter next time dude.. if you have a toyota you should buy a toyota oil filter because they have the best oil filter out there. the flow rate to the holding dirty oil in there.. its the best and i recommend it. reserch it online if you dont believe me..

good idea with the filter!!!!

[coaltrain1011001]

no not because u dont have right tools u just dont have the grip of steel

racerj32: that is not true. read your manual: use toyota filter or equivalent. same goes for oil. dummy

[racerj32]

you know toyota does not recomend usage of non toyota oil filters because they don't have flow rates as high as toyota's.
