RTA Filter tool?

[Trap The Ripper]

Hello all.

Anyone on here know which filter tool works with RTA filters?

I heard that the factory tool doesn't grip it (?) Sounds suspicious, but the guy who told me this is a boss in my eyes and a king to my heart, so I believed him. Is he making an anus of me?

For S2000's, there is a Lisle tool which works better than OEM.

Is there something like this for the RTA filter?

I'm talking about the tool mentioned in the photo below. I would like to use it to torque the filter.

Thanks!

The filter tool I used on the fram plm filters works just fine on the rta filters.

Which tool did you use?

The picture shows an oil filter wrench being used with a box wrench. Most 65mm oil filter wrenches should work fine.

How many flutes? Or does any 65mm tool have the same amount?

I don't know off the top of my head, don't you have the filters on hand? You should be able to count it on the filters or look it up.

I mean...true. But couldn't you just look it up and tell me? That way we'd both know.

I'm not the one that needs a tool to change their oil filter. I already have one. Good luck.

Lololol. I was kidding

I'll go count out the flutes later. It'd be interesting to see if its the same as the PLM filters I have.

Are you using the tool to tighten or remove? If it's removal, I ended up buying one of those jaw-esque filter tools.

If it's tightening then good luck lol, I went through like 3 before giving up. Luckily I have a friend who had the right part. We actually tested of the amount of turns on the filter (3 and 3/4? I forget what the side says) was correct for the specified torque, and it was pretty close if you do it by hand. So there's always that option.

Someone on Reddit suggests Honda PN 07AAA-PLCA100
