This might sound like a joke but I'm being serious here ...can you draw a diagram or something on how exactly you're holding the bag while unscrewing the filter...
I tried the bag trick while taking the filter off and it just overfilled from where my hand was on the filter to the top of the bag...smh. Maybe this filter location just dumb-founds me lol.
Lol, no worries, I may just make a video and post it.
But a description in some detail; I'm on my back facing backwards (top of my head pointing to the rear bumper). I am removing the filter from the back side.
You will need two large heavy duty zip lock bags. Quart to 1 gallon size, you really cant go too big. I also have a small 4 quart drain pan lying to my right where I will place the dirty bags afterwards.
Important is you unscrew the filter enough to be able to loosen by hand, but not enough to start leaking out. Roughly about 1/2 turn. Then place the bag over the filter, pull the bag all the way up until the bottom of the bag is touching the bottom of the filter. This will allow you to grip the filter with palm of your right hand.
Then start unscrew the filter until it begins to leak. Then use your fingers to hold the top of the bag, allowing the oil to drain and pool at the bottom of the bag.
Wait until it stops draining, about 1-2 minutes. Then slip this bag off and place it in the small drain pan to your right.
Slip on the 2nd bag, again pushing all the way up until the bottom of the bag is touch the bottom of the filter. Continue unscrewing until it comes off. I have my left hand holding on to the top of the bag so when the filter comes loose, I don't drop it. Hold for a few seconds to pick-up the oil that comes out of the filter mount. Then place 2nd bag and filter in the drain pan to your right.
That's it. It's easier and simpler in practice than me explaining it.
