    I use a universal wrench to take the old one off, but I don't tighten the new one with anything but my hand. I turn it till it hits the gasket, then give it the "hand" wrench. I get it pretty tight on there. Never had a leak or anything. I did try to buy one from Wal-Mart about a year back that says it fits my filter, but it doesn't. I wanted something better then the one I use to take it off.

    and don't forget to apply a little oil to the gasket on the filter, just a drop on the rubber and wipe with finger.
