I'm trying to change the oil on my brothers Peugeot 106 Zest 1.1, figured it'd be best to learn on that than break something else
Anyways, I think I'm pretty set for most of the change but I can't get the damned oil filter housing off. It's a bell shaped thing with hexagonal nut on top, I had to google it to find it. I want to be sure I can change the filter before I go ahead and try to change the oil.
I have a chain type oil filter wrench( similar to this one http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/6b/Oil-filter-wrench.jpg) but it can't get purchase on it, it just slips. The housing says 25Nm I'm not really sure how tight that is . Do I need a special tool? Also just to make sure I'm not doing somehting silly, I need to turn it anticlockwise right? Does that also mean I need to turn socket bit anticlcokwise?
Anywho, any ideas? Should I just give up and go a head with the oil change and leave the filter?
