[ST] Help w/Oil Filter!!!



Richard TRIED to change his oil tonight in preparation for leaving
FRIDAY for Colorado, and the IDIOTS who changed it last at the shop for
his 30,000 mile service tightened his oil filter too tight and he can't
get it off after 40 minutes of trying.  Both he and I could spit fire
right now.  Needless to say, getting the bike to the shop and back
before Friday will cause SERIOUS problems. We already weren't happy with
that shop and now we REALLY aren't going back.

He's stripped out the normal filter remover.  The band style remover
won't fit up in there, and he's uncomfortable with sticking a
screwdriver throught it, considering the space he has to work in. . . .

Any hints on how to loosen that damn thing???  Any and all hints will be
gratefully appreciated!!

Lisa
