There's a little tool that you can buy, it's a black plastic peice that fits over the end of the filter and then you attach a rachet to it, they work pretty good.
The strap-type wrenches are usually too big for the small Toyota filters. -------------------- -Dr Tweak, 6GC's resident engine swap wiring expert extraordinaire Click here to see my swaps drtweak@phoenixtuning.com |
