- and
- a top-frame-aperture;
- a bottom-frame comprising;
- a bottom-frame-body;
- a bottom-frame-aperture;
- and
- a plurality of studs;
- a geared-socket-hub;
- a filter-socket;
- a plurality of geared-clamp-jaws comprising;
- at least one gripping-finger;
- and
- a geared-clamp-jaw-base;
- a filter-gasket;
- and
- a toggle-clamp;
- and
- a drain-attachment assembly comprising;
- a drain-attachment-body comprising;
- a drain-attachment-base;
- including
- a plurality of keyhole-stud-receivers;
- a drain-toggle-clamp;
- a drain-nipple;
- and
- a filter-cutter;
- wherein said oil filter removal and drain system comprises said oil-filter-removal assembly, and said drain-attachment assembly in functional combination;
- wherein said top-frame, said bottom-frame, said geared-socket-hub, and said toggle-clamp are structured and arranged to provide a user with the ability to adjust the orientation of said plurality of geared-clamp-jaws to removably grip a plurality of sizes of oil-filters to aid in removal of said oil-filters by pressing said toggle-clamp to adjust said orientation of said plurality of geared-clamp-jaws;
- wherein said filter-socket is structured and arranged to allow said user to removably affix a socket-wrench to said oil-filter-removal assembly to increase torque on said oil-filter during removal of said oil-filter;
- wherein each of said geared-clamp-jaws is structured and arranged to grip an outside-surface of said oil-filter;
- wherein said drain-attachment assembly is removably affixable to said oil-filter removal assembly via said plurality keyhole-stud-receivers of said drain-attachment assembly accepting and retaining said plurality of keyhole-studs of said oil-filter removal assembly;
- wherein each of said bottom-frame-aperture and said top-frame-aperture are structured and arranged to allow said filter-cutter to pass through said oil-filter-removal assembly to contact said oil-filter;
- wherein said oil-filter-removal assembly is structured and arranged to be adjustably affixable to said oil-filter such that a user may remove said oil-filter from an engine;
- and
- wherein said drain-attachment is structured and arranged to puncture said oil-filter via said filter-cutter providing said user with an ability to drain oil from said oil-filter prior to removing said oil-filter horn said engines
- providing a replacement-oil-filter for an engine;
- adjusting said oil-filter-removal assembly to affix to said replacement oil-filter;
- draining oil from said engine;
- placing said oil-filter-removal assembly upon an oil-filter of said engine;
- pressing a toggle-clamp of said oil-filter-removal assembly to secure said oil-filter-removal assembly to said oil-filter of said engine;
- loosening said oil-filter of said engine by affixing a socket-wrench to said oil-filter-removal assembly and rotating said oil-filter-removal assembly;
- affixing a drain-attachment assembly to said oil-filter-removal assembly and a drain-tube to said drain-attachment assembly;
- pressing a drain-toggle-clamp of said drain-attachment assembly;
- opening said tubing-clamp;
- and
- directing oil draining from said oil-filter into a oil-vessel via said drain-tube.
