oil filter
Damn wtf is up with the filter on these things. I dont have a filter wrench small enough to fit it and all the tricks I know have failed me... Any suggestions as to how to get this thing off. And dont say filter wrench, there are no stores within an hour of me that have one..
Thanks... for any suggestions...

Use a long screwdriver and hammer all the way through the filter and spin that puppy.

Thanks that would have worked but I found a dif solution before I had to resort to that. I had a rubber bungie strap and cut it then wrapped it around the filter and put the wrench over that. It finally let go.
But damn what the hell Kawi???? Some smartass little jap dude useing an impact wrench to put that F'er on...
