Ah, yes. Ur-q oil filter removal funtime. BTDT > x 50. I like the basic handle-with-strap-type wrench here. It's a bit difficult sqeezing the strap between the filter and one of the oil pipes what with those alternator wires in the way, but it can be done. Practice helps, you'll get that! You do remove the oilcooler airflow control panel, right? -glen
