Hi

it may be possible to use a BOA strap wench or a oil filter strap wench to remove the filter top you could replace the filter and use the same methord to do up the filter housing. Buy a new one and replace next time.

hope this helps mark

Why not get a new one from FRF at Swansea and change it now! Will only waste a little bit of oil and once done properly will be fit and forget basically. Also, just in case something happens.
