Re: Oil-filter removal (2004 Jeep Liberty)
 

Hi Billy Ray,

Because both tools you refer to grab the oil filter around its middle,
their "handles" are to the SIDE of the filter.
But, in a Liberty, there's no room at the SIDE of the filter to swing
the "handles".
So the tool almost needs to work from the END of the filter.

Take a sharp screwdriver, hammer it through the filter, puncturing it
and then torque it off with the screwdriver. Yes, it's that easy.
