How To Remove A Oil Filter Thread Adapter?

Make sure there are no punch points locking the adapt from twisting off with filter. Use a propane torch or hair dryer. Get the glue hot so the pvc tool starts to back it out when hot enough, still cooking it off. Pinch points are removed by using a larger drill and just V cut the indent away and stop (if applies).

The part that is sticking out have the flat spots on it. And why are you removing it?

Ok. Do you need to save the threads that your trying to get out? If so, I can make you a tool, if the threads sticking out have the flats on it.

The threads will be 3/4 -16. Which is a fine thread 3/4. There probably isn't enough threads to get two nuts on it. If you can't find any, let me know and I'll machine a couple down for you, or make you a tool.
