    In the time you spend looking for your fancy oil filter wrenches, I'll have two oil changes done.

    The filter should come off by hand, otherwise you put it on too tight before!

    If it's too tight, just hammer a screwdriver through the filter and use that to turn it. Job's done in about a minute, no fancy tools required.
