I just got 6 NOS early style 004 oil filters off eBay. They're in the original Honda packaging. So you can still get them.

Just a thought.

Looks like the LHT filter wrench is for sale. Feels a bit pricey to pay $90 for it though. Maybe wait and see if the new Lisle tool works better.

Just ordered this for $8.05 total. It arrives Saturday so look out for an update then.

I hope there is no clearance issue with that wrench.

I just bought the Lisle 61550 wrench. It fits fine.

Wow. I understand the cost it takes for low scale CNC manufacturing, so definitely not overpriced but... wow.

Off to Lisle I go!

Does this fit the 004 or the 306 filter? Funny that this was never a concern for me until I start reading things on the forum.....

Edit, I just read your post a few posts down, it fits the 306.

I just bought the Kyoto Tools one (KTC AVSA-080). 80mm 15 flutes for 22 + shipping. I just bought my s2000 last year and saw old posts about getting the Honda filter tool, which I did and was wondering why it slipped so much...

I have this and it fits/gets the job done. The only downside is there is no nut welded on the back side to get a good grip.

Due to clearance problems with the ratchet wrench, the filter wrench may not fit all the way down the filter.

This worked fine. It didn't fit all the way down with the ratchet in, but far enough that it got good purchase on the filter and I was able to get it tightened to where it needed to be.
