Very good vid.
Demo on each tool was great.
Retired now, I've used all but the 3 legged unit.
90% used the strap wrench shown

The last one you dud, would you know the exact size for a 1993 f150 5.0?

[@CrIMiN8l]

great video

[@backyardchevy328]

Thank you🙂

[@mavricxx]

I've used the 3rd one tested at 4:38 and it sucks, don't waste your money. Tried it and it's a hassle, now it just sits there collecting dust. I want to try that second one though, looks solid

[@bretz71]

Then you didn't know what you were doing. Lisle sells that model to professional service shops to use when all other filter removal tools have failed, and it works.

[@nicholasm2239]

That's amazing. I did my oil change yesterday and oil filter was stuck so goddamn hard figures you'd be releasing a video on it.
There is a method I've been using tho that has saved me more than once when stuck with a wrench.
Take a rag or piece of shirt or anything as long as it's grippy. Cut a piece of strapping off the end of ratchet straps if have to. Tie it in a loop a bit bigger than the filter. Take an extension bar from socket set (or anything rod shaped really) and feed it through the knot and twist it up as hard as it goes so the loop pulls down on the filter. Once you can't go anymore you should have the extension bar (push it almost out of the knot to get max leverage) pressed up against the filter and fabric and bam you got yourself a fantastic lever depending how long your extension is. Saved me twice so far. Happy oil change!

[@backyardchevy328]

Thank you🙂 yea that would work similar to a filter strap without having to buy one👍

[@attorres2936]

What type of wrench are you using?

[@dgronzega8073]

The 1/2 inch drive was a Craftsman
The 3/8 inch drive was a Snap-On locking flex head

[@jasonusa]

is the Mobile 1 M1-110A 64MM?

[@carlovanrijk4039]

Jasonusa, yes. I use that same oil filter on my Honda Civic. But sometimes when using that 64 mm cap, I’ll have to slide a folded up piece of paper in there to make it snug, and not slip off when loosening the filter.

[@jasonga]

Snap-on band wrench easy...

[@backyardchevy328]

Havent tried that one..ill have to get one

[@jasonga]

@@backyardchevy328 they just work!!

[@raykupal]

I made the cardinal mistake with my corolla while changing the oil filter.... i torqued it to PFT and not 18...😰

[@backyardchevy328]

oh no, are u trying to get it out?

[@raykupal]

@@backyardchevy328 yeah and my head's about to blow. It's just stubborn🥵

[@backyardchevy328]

@@raykupal when the dealer did that..it broke my breaker bar..and i ended up having to use an impact on it, replaced the housing as well

[@qwzxhskexn9467]

which one is the best ?

[@carlovanrijk4039]

A lot of it depends on the positioning of the oil filter, and how tight the space around it is.
