ABSTRACT:
An oil filter gripping tool including a looped band, the ends of which are connected to scissors levers through a pair of double pivot hinges. The hinges allow movement of the levers to tighten the band to contract to closely fit and grip the oil filter. With the band tightened about the oil filter, turning the levers causes rotation of the oil filter. The hinges also allow the levers to be laterally moved to avoid engine and vehicle parts.
