    I just did my first oil change. I used an AmPro 65/14. I bought it in 2000, probably from Advance Auto. It fit perfectly. TIP: I coated the inside of the wrench with grease. By doing this, it slipped on and off very smoothly. Then I wiped the (little amount of) grease off the filter cover when I was done. But what a hassle the whole thing is compared to every other vehicle I've owned...

    I used one like in the link I provided above and it worked just fine.
