I ordered a new K&N Oil Filter the other day. It arrived, and I was immediately struck by two thoughts.
https://www.knfilters.com/images/PowerSports/psoilgroup.jpg
As you can see from the various pics, they have a 1/2" ratchet attachment on the top to make it easier to screw on/off.
Thought 1) That's great. No more burning my fingers trying to attach the crap chain-strap-wrench that's about 100 years old. Tremendous
Thought 2) I've bought oil filters for cars and bikes for the last 8 years. Why hadn't this been done before? Seems like such an obvious thing to do, yet I'd never thought of it. Seemingly neither had anyone else.....
No reason for posting this, and didn't really know which section to do it in. Just wanted to share. If these things have actually been on oil filters for years and I've just been blissfully unaware, I apologise..... ____________________ - Yeah, you know the type, loud as a motorbike, wouldn't bust a grape in a fruit fight.
