The only way I was able to fix the issue correctly once was to double nut
the oil filter tube, and use a ninety degree claw wrench and extension/ torque
wrench to reinstall the mount.
This was after a 4 hour oil filter removal, (over torqued by PO) which was
simply one of the least fun jobs I have done, well after Porsche 944 clutch
replacements, but I won't go there......basically twisting off bit by bit the
oil filter in pieces till I got the damm thing and filter feed pipe off and on
the bench- hence a perfect example of why to NOT over-tighten the oil filter,
and to put a little oil on the seal before mounting up. AND to use the
proper torque and torque wrench when called for.

BTW, Scott, and Ron I like you both and value your opinions and input, but
to quote Rodney King "can't we just get along"?
