 Re: Oil filter remover
Yes i concur the tools are only for getting them off ,oil on the gasket and 3/4 turn by hand once gasket is starting to seal ,as marked on most of them is the way to fit.

Especially when the one you have had for about 20 years has gone and hidden itself amongst the jars of round toits.......

 Re: Oil filter remover
Not exactly labour saving as I'm supposed to change the oil every twelve miles or so. And it'd be easier to change the filter on a late 2cv if you hacksawed the front right hand chassis leg off.
