of looking like a squished tin can and you will ooze confidence as you tell us all how you did it !!<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Into the final stretch now, the ‘3 has a spin on filter adaptor and well after 12years seems the filter is not liking to budge. And it is tight quarters to get a handle on. Any suggestions to getting this sucker off??? I have a filter
“claw” wrench but I can seem to get a good grip….<o:p></o:p></p>
