Easy, make it somebody elses problem. Go get one of those quickie $20 (or less) oil changes. I had one stuck so horribly bad that I couldn't get it off no matter what I did, so I threw my oil into the front seat of my and drove across town to the quicky oil and lube place. For $20 I relieved myself of a headache and payed somebody else to put my oil into my Ep while I sat back and read the newest Honda Tuning. Not the mechanics way out, but got the job done.

I have the same issue right now. I was thinking of buying a oil filter socket from autozone.
But I did think about the fasty lube is a much better idea if I can't get it off.
usedep3, where you get that wrench?
Oil filter wrench that you can connect a socket wrench to.
i got mine at autozone, but any pepboys, advance auto, freight harbor, etc should carry them. i think freight harbor has them on sale for like $7 this month. i bought one of these initially but it kept slipping.
the only thing i use it for now is to tighten the oil filter a little more than finger tight after i change the oil.

I always use a filter wrench to get it off with a long extension so your not busting your knuckles up. Hand tighten it as hard as you can when you replace it....works for me no leaks!
