[QUOTE="brdgbldr, post: 126361, member: 7474"] I’ve never changed the canister filters on that model. I would suggest only removing one at a time and have the new filter ready to go on. From what I could find it sounds like no matter what you try it is going to make a mess and drain your oil cooler. If by “tight” you mean hard to unscrew, you will just have to find a filter wrench that works. Strap type filter wrenches will be able to keep getting tighter no matter how much the filter crushes. If you mean ”tight“ as in hard to get to, that is just the nature of the beast. There is a little trick you can try for getting some of the oil out of the filter before removing them, if there is room. However, you may still drain all of the oil from the cooler but it may not be as messy. I will attach a video. (If you think too much oil is coming out of the filter you can just plug the holes as stated in the video.) [MEDIA=youtube]XvTlgUaPBPs[/MEDIA] Don't forget about replacing your in-line filters. If the brass filters get clogged it causes all sorts of issues with the drive motors. [/QUOTE]
