Tried again to get the oil filter off the 1.2 8v dungbox, wouldnt move with the chain thing, then tried a screwdriver through it. All it did was tear a huge gash in the filter, wont budge it 
Actually looks like its rusted on there, heap of shite

rusted on! Maybe the rubber ring came off when a new one was being fitted.
how much is left of it now? Chains are crap, you want a rubber band type strap thing.

Well theres a 2" tear on the top from the screwdriver, nothing will budge the bastard, screwdrive just tears the casing more if you push

hasnt been changed in 2 years at least, been sitting in a field for that long. I put the screwdriver right through, but i ended up snapping the screwdriver it was on so tight 
Jammed the crowbar in there though, loosened it off, then got the plyers onto it and took it off totally.
