I'm trying to get the oil filter casing off my CN6 SD-33 in order to change the filter but can't budge the bolt holding it. My working space is very, very limited. I can get a socket (17mm) onto it but no room for the rachet. I can get a combination wrench on it but it won't move. Haven't tried vice grips yet as I don't want to mess up the head. Any suggestions? |

That's what I'm looking for now with not much success so far. Almost impossible to do an oil change without spilling oil into the bilge. |

Has anybody managed to source a remote filter adapter for the SD33 with the cannister filter, yet? |
