I want to thank you for posting this. I am a 75 year old metalworker that has taken off lots of oil filters. I have a new John Deere lawn tractor, s140, and somebody didn't lube the oil filter when they put it on. Went to do my 6 hour oil change and it just wouldn't come off. The screwdriver tore it up. I made a version of that tool (took 20 minutes to make) and in 3 minutes it was clear off. I couldn't believe it. Thanks again!!
That’s awesome! Glad it worked.
After 3 hours attempting to remove an oil filter off a 2008 trailblazer, I found this video. I made a variation of this tool by cutting 2 slits in a deep socket (on 6" extension), running ratchet strap strapping through the slits, wrapping counter- clockwise around socket, an Shazam! 2 minutes later it was off!!! Thanks for video!
First and foremost thank you!!!! I bought every tool to remove a stuck oil filter and nothing worked!!! After watching this I ran to my local advanced parts store and picked one up for $10. With a little motivation I was finally able to remove it. Thanks again!!!!!
DANG...got that same problem 7500 miles after a dealership service job. Wife thinks I am an idiot (again)..."it is just an oil filter"! I will try your hack and do all of my own oil changes in the future. Thanks bud.
Thank you bro. I had the same problem. After looking at Your homeade tool l i was able to make one of my own with a ratchet strap and cutting a bolt to thread it in the bolt, and it worked. Took a few attempts, but it finally started moving.
Praise God........
I've had that tool in my arsenal for decades and it's never let me down until today. Its a Land Rover Evoque and the previous owner obviously hadn't changed it for years. There is minimum gripping surface but will get done tomorrow. Spent the whole day today trying to get it off...the whole frickking day !
How did you end up getting the filter off?....Or did you??
Had a tough one today which led me here. Was able to make something similar with tools in my garage and it worked with reasonable effort after I couldn't budge the filter at all with normal techniques. Thank you for sharing!!
Dude you are a life saver. I just custom built this tool and it worked beyond perfect! My oil filter was like welded to my motor. Thank you!!!
How do you build one
How do I build that cause that's what I'm dealing with right now
I agree...I made one using a ratchet strap...just fish a loop through the ratchet...put the loop around the filter, ratchet tight then use the ratchet as a handle for leverage to break it loose
@@vividroseCo Alternatively you can buy this tool for 5 $. Just ask your friendly Hardware dealer.
@@christophermikrowelle7093Ace hardware maybe? Autozone?
Thank you , I am at the same point with my 02 Chevy Duramax. It's not budging . The screw driver is just shredding it. So now at 2:22 am I am going to recreate this tool and give er hell one more time.
I've never had one that bad! But at least it was fairly accessible, and not one of those buried way behind other engine parts!
Hand tighten oil filters only! You don't need a quarter turn with a wrench, afterwards. Have been doing it this way for over 20 years and I've never had a problem. And I don't have the strongest grip, either. Lube the gasket generously with fresh oil, prior to installing.
Well done for not giving up !!! Cheers Eddie
Omg! I was in quite a predicament with my Avalanche filter basically getting crushed with the standard tools. I built the tool you showed, and BLAMMO! She came right off. THANKS FOR SHARING. THIS WILL FOREVER BE MY MAIN FILTER TOOL🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
I feel your pain. Had the same type of issue recently. Great tool and great video. 👍
Sir i saw your video now Because i was stuck on Filter removal on Renault Kangoo 1.5dci
I broke almost my finger trying to get it out in tight space.
After i saw your video I was like in 5 minutes done with the small version of yours.
And guess what?
It came in minute out.
I learned something today, thank you!
Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪!
Absolute lifesaver, thank you so much
Made one of those tools and it worked great. My truck was down for four days before viewing your video. Almost gave up hope.
Had this issue on a 93 S-10 blazer 4.3 ordered a tool online that works like this but the strap looks like it's made from a timing chain. Worked great. Worked in an area where you couldn't get a screwdriver into.
Yeah did this today, amazing thanks for the help!
Thanks for this!
Lol I just just had the same issue with my wife's traverse I did finally get it off but it was a bear and after seeing this I'm definitely going to make a tool like that one you used. I appreciate the video brother
Effective? yes, definitely, and well done. Easy? Didn't look 'easy'. Thanks for the great tip.
Keep up the tough work Tuff!
The relief in your voice was satisfying. Just rubbing a little oil around the gasket should probably prevent this right?
Excellent content thank you
Bud, thank you!!!! Ours was on so tight it ripped the strap. The filter finally loosened but it ripped.
IM NOT HAPPY FOR YOU TROUBLE,BUT ITS GOOD TO SEE OTHERS IN THE SAME BOAT!
IVE GOT MY NEPHEW OLD 05 F150 THAT S.O.B. HAS ISSUES W/OIL FILTER EVERTTIME,EVERY F'ING TIME!
MY PALMS ARE RAW FROM TWISTING ON THAT SOAB!!
LOVE THAT TOOOL!
IM BOUT TO SACRIFUCE A RIGGING STRAP & A 3/8" DRIVE BABY EXT!!
THANKS,TWO ( KINDA SORE ) THUMBS UP!!
Think I am going to go to the dealership after seeing you having trouble...even with your magic trick. haha
One thing I'm sure not to do is damage the filter if for no other reason than I may have to drive the vehicle to get the job done. I have an assortment of filter removal tools but frankly those work only when there are no problems. One mistake you made and I'm sure to avoid is putting pressure in the middle causing the crush as you did. The toughest one I had, the filter had been on for years. I wrapped duct tape on it for friction on the filter and twisted it over for friction on my rope which I wrapped through a screwdriver for leverage, making sure the force was exerted against the bottom at the casing's strength. It required much force, and the filter distorted some, but it came off intact.
This might actually work on mine, which is even worse than the one you just did. I bought a 1989 Chevy pickup with a small block that's been sitting for ten years. I was going to change the oil today, but got stuck there. Now I know what to do 👍
Dude!
Great tool, my highlander filter is SO stuck…
Try next weekend.
Dude... I just removed my stuck oil filter... Fortunately it went out with the screwdriver trick but damn, Lil guy gave a fight
I was changing the oil filter on our backup generator. The wrench crushed the filter - then punched a screwdriver thru it and it shredded what was left shredded what was left. I peeled away what was left of the metal to avoid cutting my fingers - the damn thing still did not budge. The base of the filter where it threads on was still left. I could build your 'tool' but I muscled 2 bolts into holes around the threads and used a screwdriver between them and used a lot of leverage on the screwdriver to back off the leftover. Wish I knew who installed the old filter.
Same
Dang just had that incident too. I broke two oil filter tools and a screwdriver broke in half. Hammering and chisel didn't work either.
Stripped the filter off until the threads were left. I could use a tool for blocking pulleys that fit the holes and could remove it with a 120 cm pulley bar. This job took me longer than changing the timing belt. 😭
Just got something similar from the parts store and the tension on the filter popped the strap…it’s not totally mangled but being between the headers and oil pan is a shit spot to work any tips much appreciated
I used both the cup socked, handle band types and a strap and chain wrench. Most just crushed the housing more. I discovered using a 1/2" extention up thru the screw on nipple to the engine and unscrewed the nipple and the filter flange. You can then clamp the oil flange in a vise and inscrew them apart. Reinstall the screw on nipple to the engine and party on!
To quote Rainman Ray: "I win". I hope you felt the victory
I had a minute lube used RTV sealant on my filter and I had the same issue when I changed it the next time myself,I will never go back.That strap tool worked for me as well.
that trick as you call it has been round for as long as i remember , my dad used the strap wrench for oil changes back in the 60's
Amazon sells a band wrench very similar to that. I once had a filter that was that stuck. I punched some holes in the band of a standard filter wrench like yours. I zipped some sheet screws through the band and into the filter. It worked without slipping or crushing the filter.
Very clever method. Hat's off to you sir!
I like your method. I will try that.
BTW, I wasted my money on the Amazon one. It's trash for situations like this.
Thanks!
Every time I get oil and filter at one of those places that specialize in oil changes, the next time I do, the filter is difficult to remove.
Yes, lube the gasket but a ham fisted first attempt to unscrew the filter at a slight angle will oval out the threads in the filter. I had a Ford I think that that happened to. I was lucky that I was able to unbolt the filter mount and put it in a large vice. I had to use a giant pipe wrench to get it to unscrew. It was brutal.
I have also had the cup temoval tool slip, I then try to fold up some sand paper (80 to 100 grit) on the end of the filter and the press on the cup and try again.
I had a couple of those on a CAT 360, had to use a 1/2 inch breaker bar and broke three straps. The scary thing was that this was a first service and those filters were put on by CAT.
bro my napa gold filter on an auction car i bought is on stupid tight like the obe on your car thanks for the tip
Great tip , thanks ! But how many times do you have to say ( dude ). ????
This looks like what I had to put up with removing the factory oil filter from an early 80's GM vehicle when I was trying to perform its first oil change. I have been told that back the day, they used to use red loctite on the oil filter threads on the factory assembly line so that the oil filters won't accidentally loosen up.
Lisle makes a tool that accepts a 3/8" drive and applies the same principle as that strap (more the filter resists, the tighter the tool squeezes). Throw an adapter on a high torque impact 1/2" impact and you'd be golden.
Mine looks exactly the same because i used screwdriver and then after used pliers that caved it in more bending it. But mine is on a motorcycle and its not exposed out of the block its in a c shape hole that u cant fit hands in. U have to use swivel but dsnt twist man. Saw this video looking for a solution. Mine feels welded like yours man
Just went through something similar. Not this extreme but it took me much longer than usual to remove it.
Easiest way is to use a strap wrench at the base of the filter and a cup socket at the end. Usually 2 people required to do this. Surface aera is key to not crushing it.
The fuel filter is welded to my Detriot Diesel in my boat. I've ripped the thing to pieces and it's still there. I don't even know if I can get the socket strap around it. Best solution so far though. I'm going to make one with a deep socket and a zip cutter. Wish me luck.
On farm bought that strap filter wrench at nappa 20 yrs ago
I haven’t seen it that Bad, But I came close too it when I was changing the Oil of my Step Daughters
car 😂 I only had one hole and a little bit crushed with that same strap.
For those using a flute. Put a wet sorta thick napkin and place it inside the flute before putting on top of the oil filter. Works like a charm.
Damn, I've been going thru the same thing dude🤦♂️. I'm like WTH????
Unbelievable how tight my filter is....
I've tried other methods and I'm getting frustrated so I'm using the screw driver method tomorrow. I'm so done with this sh*t dude. Thx for sharing
Youre the frickin man
Thanks for sharing! Never seen one like that. What an idiot who installed it that tight without lube. I have the cup type wrench that fits on the end of the filter and takes a 3/8” drive ratchet, and the three finger metal one but you need room on the end to work those. Best filter wrench I have is like a thin channel lock that bites into the filter body high up and lets you turn it off.
The worst one I ever had was baked on, but we got it off using a Craftsman strap wrench. It was a bitch but nothing like this one!
Use a long extended cordless ratchet
@@2ndsam302?? What’s a cordless ratchet? None of my ratchets have cords. What tool did you mean?
Great Idea, will have to make one, also do I have to call everyone dude now!
This happened to me today in a 1.8L Civic. Will fuck up your entire day. Especially a pain when you have such little room to work with and no leverage
I'm there now, looking for solutions. Bought a car that was always serviced at chevy dealership. Thanks a lot dealership for this problem.
Found a tool just like it @ NAPA about 10 years ago. Maybe they still have it.
I had this problem today only mine completely came apart leaving the bottom part of the filter
Great idea and great job DUDE, but if you said DUDE one more time I was going to throw my monitor out of my window!!!
I’m in this situation right now, very frustrating
I got on on my outboard that's just like that!!!
Found this tool on Amazon, fingers crossed my ripped apart oil filter will come loose!
Sometimes easier taking the oil filter ,to engine, flange of and removing filter in a vice.
I tired that on my stuck oil filter and it worked
Thank you for the video! Just did my buddies ‘09 Camry. I’ve never dealt with anything that difficult doing basic maintenance on vehicle. After 6 hours and 4 different helping hands. Got that off. Always those d*** oil filters😂
At least you had enough clearance to utilize some throw with the ratchet. It's frustrating that a manufacturer allows their product to leave their plant in that condition.
I have the same problem with a V8 6.5L Diesel 1995 GMC Suburban, but I dont have even the correct angle to use that tool :(
now try that between 2 454 big blocks in my boats bilge area.. that's what I'm stuck with. Broke 3 wrenches already. I have to make one of those.
Advance auto sells a tool just like this and it is under $8 in Austin,Texas.
where can I find the metal piece that accepts the socket?
Amazon has the entire thing for under 15. Search filter strap.
I'm in that situation right now as we speak
Where you guys buy that from?
I built this but you can buy at amazon. Search strap wrench
Leverage!
Same condition my oil filter this is stuck I do try but this is no open 😔😔
It’s a strap wrench. I have an old one like you used. The ones now require a socket extension to use. Gear wrench makes a chain wrench. Never have your car serviced were someone works you have had trouble with. Strange things happen to autos. I have heard of the stuck oil filter before. Never as bad as the one you had.
That's a racecar how did it get so tight?
I have found that putting some silicone grease on the gasket keeps it from sticking better than oil also a warm engine seems to release filter better than a cold one.
I think you were using same ratchet i have is that a champion offset spark plug wrench? looks just like the one i use for oil filters and all smaller jobs on cars.
Used to sell those
I had one one on a motorcycle not changed in 12 yrs. access was impossible almost removed engine but shocking with chisel did it much against my feelings. That tool and my cannister wrenches and screwdriver all failed
Lol your filter isn't stuck. You should see my new Kubota tractor, now that is fused onto the engine block. I ripped the shell off the filter and the only thing left is the steel plate with the holes in it. I've spent hours with a screwdriver and hammer trying to get it to spin and nothing. I'm literally cutting the steel plate from one hole to the next and it still won't spin.
That is Kubota for you.... Straight from the factory.
what wrench is it??
go on amazon and look for filter strap socket
The original mistake is to overtighten it in the first place.
My situation yesterday was 10 times worse of a curse than yours. Im a 67 years of age long time mechanic with all the tools too. On a 2002 softail harley I spent five hours literally aftert driving screwdrivers in this oil filter and the metal ripped away in where the metal peeled away like the skin of an orange and pulled out the guts of the filter and was left with only the flange of the front of the filer left. And the bastard still wouldnt give, so I took one of my stanley chiself and hammered a notch on the metal flange and also had to use the floor jack handle and beat it with a damn sledge hammer and it was tight all the way until it came loose finally. I am age 67 and have never ran into this im my 53 years. What caused this? Harley delaerships and some of the shops use red loctite on every thing on the bikes and its an obsession with them even though it isnt necessary. They had used loctite on those threads.. When I finally got it off I had a pile of pieces of chrome metal pices and the entite screening guts and mesh of that filter in a pile. Piece by piece of it plus beating the flange . I still am in disbelief of this
Red loctite on the oil filter is malicious damage. The dealership attempted to destroy the bike.
@@ricksanchez3278 Loctite is an obsession with harley repair these days. Many products are misused . In machining red loctite was used for medium or course threads on black malable iron. Loctite should never be used on fine thread machine bolts because it creates a clearance. Outer primary bolts dont need loctite because they are machine bolts and also engine sprockets loctite should never be used because it creates clearance. Anytime loctite is warranted it is to be used on the very top thread of any bolt and thats all
When it’s tore up like this the answer to this is take off the metal casing
And the mounting part is ready to be taken off with screw driver and hammer it has holes in it
Man, where can I buy that
Search filter strap wrench on Amazon
I stuck a screw driver in and it ripped filter in 1/2 today .
Valvoline did this to mine. Don't let them touch your vehicles!
The oil filter on my car is a pain in the ass to even get access to. I don’t understand why most car manufacturers make one of the most commonly replaced parts one of the most difficult to get to.
You can buy that wrench at a snap on truck
Yeah dude you got it off now dude you need to put your flywheel cover back on
DUDE!
Just now my oil filter stuck and broke😞😞
I thought this was Ryan Reynolds 🤣💀
Dude!
Looks like the engine was painted with the filter on.
I did the screw driver already and it hasn't moved wtf
Please tell your friend thank you! Boat oil filter STUCK! Wrench, large channel locks (crushed), screw driver (metal ripped)...made tool. SUCCESS!!!!!!!!
It’s such a relief when it breaks loose
