Message	I've seen those write-ups where someone compares two oil filters by dissecting them. What would you use to cut one apart...just a hacksaw? The reason I'm asking is for a speech I'll be doing for my Public Speaking class. It has to be a demonstration, so I'm going to talk about how to change your own oil...while giving folks the basics on weights of oils, how the filter works, and why Jiffy Lube sucks. I'll probably pass around the cut open filter so the class can get a closer look. Any input is appreciated, and maybe you can give me some ideas for this demonstration. Rule #1: When offering helpful technical advice, don't post what you think...post what you know. 1992 Z32 2+2 NA 1986 Z31 Coupe NA (For Sale) AIM: RBA186
