oil filter removal??

Ok must be missing something. Canister rotates but when I lift it it moves 1/4 inch and feels like a mechanical stop. Ideas? What am I missing. Thanks, Denis

I just took mine out. was vacuum locked (think when you pull the drawstrings on a kitchen garbage bag, then try to pull it out of the can). Disconnect the bottom line, or pull the little drain plug in the bottom. Then it should come out.

Never had an issue. Should pull out with a little bit of force

got it out with more force then I would expect. Denis
