Remote oil filter

I just replaced this same line last night. You may not like to hear this but the best bet is lifting the engine a inch or so. I opted for the block of wood and jack under the oil pan. Most people say you need to take an engine mount bolt out but this wasn't needed. Just make sure you clean the mating surface of the filter cap and high pressure hose, getting the line installed with an old sealing gasket still there will cause more trouble than you think.
