2014 Escalade longer oil Filter?

[Smulvey585]

Folks, I just had an awful time removing a VO-88 Valvoline oil filter.

Is there a LONGER oil filter that will replace a PF-63 AC DELCO oil filter??

I find it very hard using 6 different oil filter wrench strategies to get off the longer PF-63.

The oil pan is just too close around the filter case.

I hate to collapse the shell in order to remove filters.

Let’s hear some ideas!
Thanks.

I find if they are coming off that hard, I'm putting them on to tight.

Oil the rubber ring before you install the new one.

As stated, don't tighten it so much.

Use a rope for a wrench.

Pay someone else to do it.

The VO-88 was installed by Valvoline Instant Oil Change.
So maybe they did it too tight.
