Merc often need a special tool (or big slip joint pliers....)

I wonder if that's the one for my car too? :-\ I bought a pressed steel one for my oil filter ages back but it was too small so I've since used a chain strap type intended for a canister type.

Measure the top of the filter cap, this Sealy one is 74.5mm, fits very snug.

Most on the market seem to be 76mm. The Laser one is very flimsy.

Will do. I'll bring my digital very near (vernier) home from work  :y

Oh to be retired.

My engine bay looks a proper mess. How the hell does dirt make it all the way up there. I know I live in a dusty area, but bloody hell :o

If you'd got a decent car, like a Merc you'd find it didn't get very dirty to start with :D

Purely coincidental, no doubt. ;D
