The idea is to NOT destroy your filter. I mean, what IF you gave up and had to take it somewhere.
A band wrench and sandpaper, thats all it takes. If it slips (with a band wrench) you arent muscling enough. If you are muscling it, and the handle bends in the direction you are prying, THEN its on too tight.
stupid question....you are turning it in the counter clock-wise direction, right? I know I know, but i've done dumb shit too...just outside looking in...
I've never had an oil filter I couldnt get with a band wrench or filter pliers. Not even the big mofo on a diesel truck (the vibration causes them to get really tight - think impact gun).
