That and keeping the rubber O-ring from falling off after I got everything in place and ready to tighten down. Then with my third hand I was able to hold the socket and extension.

I also had to spend some time removing the surface rust from my fastener (I used a lot of oil and it all came right out)

LOL - yeah, those 3rd and 4th hands are hard to come by sometimes. I found that some light grease held the o-ring in place nicely. 'Course, every time I change the oil, I wonder if I'm gonna loosen up the nut again spinning the filter off...
