Comment on If you can find the oil filter, I'll give you a quarter. If you can get it out after the lube tech tightened it to 325 lbft, I'll give you sixty bucks.

  I would hesitate to take a tirch to an oil filter.

      After all, a stubborn oil filter will be the least of your concerns then 😅

      I’m always nervous when I hear that in the shop.

      Just let the apprentice do it. Boss can’t be too mad at someone just learning.

    Tin snips would be a better option if you just absolutely can’t get it off.

      I’ve had a few where I was forced to crush it with some vice grips then turn the handle on the grips with a long cheater bar

        I’ve seen another desperate option of hammering a screwdriver or a long punch through the can, and then twisting off with a pipe/cheater.
