Did you ever realize that while you were at Walmart, you had a oil filter sitting right there on the shelf to try it out on? All you had to do was open the box and try it out on it.

Try sandpaper, it works best and no need to invest money for oil filter wrench. Any sand paper will do the job, it will give u the best grip than any other tools. That is what i use every time on all of my cars to take the filter off.

Funny, after I read that I thought I sounded like a dick.

Sorry, I wasn't trying to be one!

I have used almost every oil filter wrench and the best one I have used was the one that looks like a pair of pliers with round jaws. This has worked well on every car I have changed oil on. Since it works like pliers there is no filter it can't take out and its also adjustable.
