ABSTRACT:
A new method and tool for removing the conventional spin-on oil filter cartridge which typically is threaded onto the engine block of an internal combustion engine in proximity to other engine parts and which comprises the wrapping of the cartridge or canister with one end portion of a length of flexible material with the balance of the length coming off of the canister tangentially in the direction of unthreading the canister from the motor block; cinching of the end portion around the canister; extending the opposite end of the length tangentially away from the canister to a remote position spaced from the engine block and parts; and manually pulling on the free outer end of the length tangentially of the canister to tension the length and to apply a rotating torque to the canister and unthreading it from the motor block. The tool comprises a length of flexible material dimensioned for the purposes outlined above and cinch means for applying compressive force and rotational torque to the cartridge upon tensioning of the length.
