I do agree with the above comment. However, hopefully with the aid of plenty of rags it shouldn't be too much of an issue for you

I think filters have a non return rubber flap in them so they don't drain out, so that when you start the engine oil is delevered to the bits straight away instead of a few seconds to fill the filter first. Lots of rags then if you can't turn it the other way up!!!

I guess you can move it I would have to make some new lines up......or make a new tool .....like a inner tube cut it so fits on the base of the filter ...tube connects to the a cup with a hole cut in it. Something like that!!!!! I will have to see .....I have a oil change comming up....cheers
