Just changed the oil...

I never have a prob with my oil filter wrench. I never tighten my filters that much so it's only a few 1/8 turns before i can get it by hand

Agreed. Also a rubber glove (kitchen dishwashing kind) works well most of the time, no wrench needed.

Thats what i used one of the times i did it, just a regular rubber glove outta the box. What a grip you get!

I was only 10' away from some excellent rubber gloves on a shelf in my garage

Next time...

I had to use the screwdriver method on my race car. Man that thing was crazy to get off!

 

[timeless2]

Never had to use the screwdriver method. Guess I'm not a Sally.

 

[RedDaemon]

[Kilgore Trout]

Yes, I think the tick is the injectors... (I hope)

 

[RedDaemon]

i recall a previous thread you made regarding your concern. what did you finally conclude?


i guess you really dont need to use seafoam. theres always tecron and the like

 

[Kilgore Trout]

Yes, I SeaFoamed... I made a thread on it... ZERO SMOKE... WTF

No smoke whatsoever. The thread is in teh SVT section and is called "fed the snake some snake oil"

 

[RedDaemon]

i gotta see this....im going into uncharted territory

 

[RedDaemon]

so i assumed there was gunna be a vid

one should never assume

glad it worked out! but if you suspected it to be an injector why not put it in the gas tank? i am a little confused lol

 

[RedDaemon]

double post FTMFW

 

[Skidzz]

You only have to put the new filter on finger-tight. The person that owned your cobra before was probably a dumbass and didn't know that.

 

[merc123]

I put it on finger tight then give it a little twist with a wrench. I use the wrench because usually my fingers are oil soaked so I don't get a good grip on the filter.
