This thread would have been very timely last week. Sigh.... Now I get to waste a quart of oil to change my gasket to one of these o-rings. The computer says my son's Advance Auto has them in stock...3 for 6 bucks.

As a now proven expert in these matters, take my word that you don't have to waste anymore than a few ounces of oil when you remove the filter and loosen up the adapter. I did it 3-4 times on Saturday and Sunday. Just make sure to keep the filter upright during removal, while it is sitting on your work surface and then during reinstall. I didn't lose more than an ounce each time and that was the oil dripping from the adapter.
