@justsomerando8206 it almost messed mine up as the shop that had changed the oil prior to me owning the vehicle didn't lube the gasket, it sat more than it drove for a decade and was put on with an air gun. I quit getting oil changes at a shop unless I have to and I'm on Vaca because of that. This method would work if it had been hand tightened and seized, but not if a shop did what they did to my old ride.

I guess you can do whatever you want it’s your vehicle. But how cheap it is to buy a oil filter remover from say Harbor Freight’s why take a chance on causing damage to the oil pan. They also make metal cap that fits over the filter and use your half inch drive to remove the filter. I get it. use what you have when you’re in a pinch. Not saying you’re wrong just another way to remove it. Best of luck to you
