Best oil filter wrench/socket I have ever owned.

I looked at it again today. I am still unsure where its leaking from. I cleaned it pretty good with brake cleaner the other day. Now I still don't see any "new" oil leaking anywhere yet. :dunno:
Maybe this leak is a lot smaller than I thought it was. :confused:

It only takes a minute to yank the filter and check it.

Sure enough it was defective filter. Even though I cleaned it and checked the gasket on the amsoil filter, then re-installed it making sure it was on pretty tight, it was still leaking. Since I changed my oil 2 weeks ago with a NEW filter, the leakage has now stopped.

:thumbs: Good to hear that is all it was.
