[QUOTE="GT Premi, post: 14487106, member: 121775"] Correct. You wouldn't be able to remove it by hand and would be difficult even with a wrench. If you have to use more than a small amount of effort to remove it with a wrench, it's too tight. Next time you put one on, make sure you rub some oil on the gasket before you put it on and only hand tighten it. Worst case scenario, the threads on the post may be stretched or the post itself may be bent. And if it has been tightened as tightly as you said earlier, the post might very well be bent, especially if you had to use high effort with a wrench to remove the filter. [/QUOTE]
