About this part
Changing Oil filter for 2016 Kia Soul.
Auto has a plastic shroud under engine with a small removable panel to access the oil filter for removal. Using a collapsable oil canister wrench is a pain in the B@t because there is not enough room for 2 hands to facilitate filter removal as required. Therefor I conceived the idea of making an adapter that would fit to the dimpled bottom of the oil filter and except a 1/2" socket extension so that I could simply use my ratchet to remove and fasten the oil filter.
This adapter saved me 1/2 hour in the oil change time required, but most of all no added abrasions to my hands. The experience changed from colourful language to just delightful giggles. What a difference a print makes!
