Just changed the oil last night... Man that filter was on there tight.
Normally when I change a filter for the first time, and there is a lack of space to get a filter wrench in there (or I don't have the right size), I hammer a screwdriver through the filter near the end and use that as leverage to get it started.
Luckily, the filter wrench for my wife's Acura fit; just barely.
I went hand tight on the new one, but since it is a K&N with the nut welded to the end, I may try torquing it.
