Re: [FWDLK] Engile oil - Filer?

Curious about how you all change your oil filter!

I can't seem to get that cup holding the internal filter out of the engine
compartment, either way. Removed the Valve Cover once, because I thought
that might help, but it didn't. Rockers were still I the way.
And at the underside the torsion bar is in the way.

And on top of that, I used a FRAM C134PL which apparently had a to fat
rubber ring, causing difficulties screwing the filter housing back on, while
having to positioning my body in the most strange ways, to reach there.

After kicking a bucket and slamming my fence several times, I Eventually
turned that rubber ring upside down, and it screwed in the first time a
tried. Don't know how soon the oil will by-pass the filter now, but I really
don't want to have to change that oil filter too many times!

Any similar experiences, and better experiences with other brand??
