ABSTRACT:
A tool for removing a canister type oil filter from an engine and containing oil leaked from the filter and the engine block as the filter is removed. The tool provides a cylindrical body, defining an upwardly opening upper wrenching chamber to irrotatably fit over the lower portion of an oil filter to be removed and an oil reservoir therebelow which provides means for manual turning and for attachment of other tools to aid torquing. The inside surface of the wrenching chamber is configured to fit over and irrotatably engage the lower part of particularly configured filters and allows oil to flow toward the lower oil reservoir. A peripherally defined flexible boot extends upwardly and outwardly from the open upper end of the wrenching chamber to catch oil leakage and channel the oil into the oil reservoir.
