Oil filter wrench

Oil filter wrench
From what I read here I should be able to remove the filter cap with a 32 mm or 1 1/4 in socket. I have found the sockets are too tall and hit the header before seating on the cap.
To my amazement no one carries the Lisle 14700 oil filter wrench. Have tried Carquest, Autozone, Napa. Does anyone know of an auto parts chain that would have this or is it an online item.?

Same here in Canada. I'm overdue an oil change but can't get the wrench at reasonable cost. Available from Snap-On Tools for $32 ish - too much to pay.

I saw one on ebay at a price $19 including shipping.

That is what I did too. I'm sure this is what I bought:

this is what you need. It is designed for the ecotec oil filter cap. I bought mine at Oreilly Auto Parts
