It's all VFR (DCT) round here now. STILL missing my 1100s tho.

:roll: wadya mean '?????' :? ? We're talking oil filter removal/REPLACEMENT here aint we? That looks like a good deal to me. :D In another ebay 'ad' (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/360378446511? ... 1438.l2649) somebody's asking a tenner just for the drain plug! :shock:

I was waiting for someone to come along and say there was no clearance!

After I placed the post I remembered how the filter is tight up against the case.

I have to say I have punched a screwdriver through filters on many occasions but only as a last resort.

I am doing a quick service on a Boxer Cup next month.....the one that my Wife dropped the paint on.......I think I will try that method just to show how easy the screwdriver punch method is...Pic's to follow.
