Stupid Brother, NEED HELP !
 
My brother was doing my oil change, while i was at school, and he couldnt get the oil filter off with the oil filter wrench, so he drove a screwdriver into the oil filter and now my car is leaking oil from the oil filter and still cant get the oil filter off...what should i do ?

get a wrap oil wrench and do it right.

there shouldnt be that much oil leaking from the filter. Anyway, like blouisgod said, either get a oil filter wrench or use a pair of channel locks and loosen the filter. I found that channel locks work the best.

hey not sure if it helps or if you find it relevant at all but if you lube the gasket with some of your old oil it helps keep a wet seal at the base plate rather than a dry one...means it is easier to get off after 3-6 k of driving...but yeah that was funny....get him back by asking him to look at your radator cap then blasting him with the horn...hehe i get the guys at my shop like that all the time...
