how to take off oil filter housing
 

look for some advise how to take off the oil filter housing in a evo 9. I crack mine by the oil pressure sensor.

Pretty sure you have to take off the lower timing cover to get to some of the bolts. Other than that it's extremely simple and straight forward. Make sure to get a new gasket, and DO NOT apply a gasket maker to it.

how do you get the belt loses

Come on man, I found this on google in less than 5 seconds.

take a 1/2 rathet or breaker bar put it in the notch and turn counter clockwise...

put a allen or small screw drive in the holes in the bottom when they line up...

to pull the front cover you need to also remove the water pump and crank pulley. then you have to remove the 8-10 bolts in the front cover.

after its off there is two bolts in the tension itself to remove one is a 12 the other is the pivot of the tensioner and its 14mm... pull those and its been awhile but there should be 3 more bolts plus the oil cooler lines to remove the filter housing...
