I found a perfectly fitted oil filter wrench at my local auto part supplier. It is the "Ritefit" model A251. 76mm X 14 Flute. I paid $3.59 and it includes a lifetime warranty. It worked perfectly and the 3/8" drive allowed me to torque the filter correctly. The website is stated as www.ctatools.com

Hope this saves you some hard-earned $$
Is it a dual step 74 - 76mm filter wrench? Because the service manual specifies a 74mm wrench for the oil filter for model years 1997 - 2004. I would think a 76mm would be a little loose and could eventually chewup the stupid plastic filter housing.
It appears dual; the bottom, open area is slightly larger in diameter from the inside, top area. I had absolutely zero slipping or marking of the plastic casing.
"The existence of the flamethrower is evidence that someone, somewhere once said 'I want to set those people over there on fire, but I don't want to have to walk over there to do it.'"
Yeah, I think it's like 74 or 76 mm cap. I paid like $4 at local Advance Auto store. I didn't even try dealership cause I didn't realize they even sell such tools. A strap wrench will also work but you won't be able to torque it.

Yes. That's it. That's the dual step filter wrench. I also have that one.
