if you dont have a filter wrench, i just use a belt, yep a belt for trousers (leather) works a treat.
no one will laugh at you, we all start somewhere :D

you can open up the intake and look at the filter see how dirty it is

my old 3g cough and spluttered one time, filter was so dirty it was kinda blocked /choked

get filter and oil changed too, not that hard, but be aware its a messy job if you do it yourself.

especially if you have to go screwdriver through the filter route to get it off :lol:
