Re: gasket on oil filter adapter
Well could be one of 3 different tools, either a 5/8's (?) wrench, a t50 (?)
torks bit (that's is one of those 6 pointed stars) or an Allan wrench, Since
you have a 97, it is probably the tork's bit. I had a shop do mine while it
was in for other work anyways, but you may want to call a couple
stealerships and politely ask them.
