FAQs
Does this wrench include a handle?
No, this is a socket-style wrench that requires a 1/2-inch drive ratchet or torque wrench to operate.
Can I use this on non-Ford or Mazda vehicles?
Only if the oil filter housing on those vehicles also features a 66.5mm/14-flute design.
Is this tool impact wrench compatible?
It is designed for manual use with hand-operated ratchets or torque wrenches; using an impact wrench is not recommended.
How do I know if this is the right size for my car?
Consult your vehicle's owner manual or the oil filter packaging to confirm the required removal tool size.
What is the weight of the wrench?
The wrench weighs approximately 0.14kg.
Troubleshooting
Tool slips while turning the filter cover
Ensure the filter cover is free of debris and that the tool is pushed flush against the flutes.
The wrench will not fit onto the filter housing

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use this tool, simply attach your 1/2-inch square drive ratchet or torque wrench to the top of the socket. Ensure the wrench is pushed fully onto the oil filter flutes to prevent stripping.
