It's the big one.
Go to walmart and pull out a Fram PF2 . Thats the size.
Be carefull of those Jiffy lube Type places. They get there oil from a 50 gallon barrel, Hard telling how long that oil has been sitting .
Make sure the Royal P you buy meats the API letter for your car. Look in the owners manual.

Look i told you before...look at tacobills post...he has adjustable green wrench...you can get it at autozone, advanced or just about any place like that....its easy to use to take off or even tighten the filter..........there are also many wrenches that have bands that are also adjustable....if the "store" you are referring to doesnt have anything like this then find a different store!

I just used my hands..always have. If you need a wrench.. like others have said.. just go to autozone and find an adjustable one.. or just get the "big one" there...
