    I don’t think you’re supposed to put the oil filter in your ass, but hey, you do you… 😂

    Oh, dude. If it’s in a small/weird place and you’ve got a little rubber-strappy grabber that isn’t doing you justice, you gotta get onna those oil filter sockets. It was so fast I was mad i didn’t get one like ten friggin years ago.

      Yeah turns out that there’s an intake brace in the way that’s just 3 bolts. Also whoever did this last oil change really muscled the thing down too. I do need to get the right size socket though, they are good.

    I 3D printed a socket to make the job way easier. Still a bit annoying to get to, but easy to apply the required torque
