Stroking it...

yes.. I am serious..
Did the water pump, radiator, added trans cooler yesterday and went to do the oil, aaaaand I can't get the filter off. I've broken 2 of the round type tools and one of them put lovely big dings in the filter. Many moons ago I had a baaaad experience in an EA after putting a screwdriver through it and trying to bash it off, so was trying to avoid doing that... any other suggestions? Will one of the clamp style ones that attach to a socket be a better option? I am already $40 down in filter removal tools! I am 2 days away from heading off caravaning for 6 months so I realllllly don't have time at the moment, getting very close to just calling a mobile mechanic near me at rothwell and telling him to fix it! Help appreciated! Cam
