The filter has been on for many years. I can't get it to turn. Even turned bike on the side to help get leverage. Suggestions???
Then again I suppose it might not be lack of maintenance but just over zealousness with the tightening. ??
If the oil filter socket wrench is slipping over the facets on the filter body, drill 6 holes in the filter socket wrench and insert six 1/4" sheet metal screws through it into the oil filter.
You are turning it counter clockwise?
Next time, use some Dow Corning High Vacuum grease on the oil filter seal.
Jeez Alex.
Nice job. All holes de-burred and none look as though they've been used, I'm guessing you took the pic before scratching them up.
Mines just like yours but I at least I used real wood.
Thanks, guys. Will try the rag first, then with screws into filter. Looks like will need to bring the wrench inside to the drill press and modify it. Lots of good ideas. Will try tomorrow for the filter again. Let you know as soon as I have it off. Rainy today anyway so not good for riding here.
