749 Changing Oil Now-sieve Filter Stuck-how Does It Come Out ?

  1. Thanks for that. I've tried to look up inside the filter with a mirror but couldn't see a Hex socket. Not that i have a 14mm Allen key anyway and if I did it would have to be at least 7" long to reach. Obviously I don't want to damage it in trying to pull it out if it is threaded.
     
  2. I would say that it will be exactly the same & unscrew.... They are really Flippin tight mind as mentioned & you will more than likely want an allen socket & a breaking bar to crack it...

  3. Thanks Dean. I'll have another look at it tomorrow. Did you use a long handled Allen key?
     
  4. I used a long allen socket as below to allow plenty of purge with precise control.
