  • From the thumbnail, it looks like you used a shotgun to take it off.

  • @JonTheChron LOL that's a stock photo from using a screw driver several times to rotate it off.

  • On my Jeep i had a oil filter that just would not come off. I took a screw driver and hammerd it in the filter and use that screwdriver as a lever to twist it off.

  • @1ownjoo2 Good job!

  • Another reminder of people who are NOT mechanically inclined, they should be banned from owning tools.

    Then again, they buy the CHEAP CHINA junk and strip/round out ALL the fasterers turnning it into a RAT BIKE.

    Looks like the cowling just ate it, and the pliers is this some sort of a joke or something?

    geezzz

  • @astrid14999 Keep calm. The cowling is shiny- that's not a scratch. Destroying a filter that is going to be thrown away and replacing it with a new factory filter doesn't constitute a "rat bike" If you want that just buy one from China. I have oil filter sockets for everything including Volvo's, but not everyone else does. This is a good trick for those who want to maintain their vehicle without going hungry for a tool they use once or twice a year.

  • @robd23auto Just chase it with brake parts cleaner after. It will flush the oil out and into the pan. Beauty.

  • Was this just a demo or were u actually changing the filter without removing the fairings?

  • I have been a professional aircraft mechanic and inspector for over 30 years and I have seen my share of stuck oil filters. Those aircraft engines can really get hot and fuse the filter in place. Many times we didn't have much room either just like this motorcycle filter. The best tool we had was from Bogert Aviation (800)627-8088. It didn't take long and it worked every time. My kid works for the company now. they have been making the tool for a long time.

  • @cydonianman

    Well same here, why buy stuff you dont need when you can think of things to use around you ?

  • @1ownjoo2 i watched my uncle have to do that many years ago on his 69 road runner. but he did that because he was too cheap to go buy a filter wrench at walmart.

  • awsome trick i change about 20 to 50 filters 6 days a week, :/ definitly will try this thanx.!
