Good value. I'll put it to use. I should have gotten a forked version since I put my filter in a tight space.

Worth every cent when you use it. I changed both water and fuel filters and this wrench probably save me half the time to do the job. I know that I only do this once a year, but being to do it without braking the plastic cover, priceless!

We had friends tell us that we could loosen the goldenrod filter with all kinds of "make-it-do" contraptions. We decided to wait and get the right wrench for the goldenrod filter. We're glad we did! The filter had not been changed in quite a while and it was on pretty tight. But the goldenrod wrench eventually got it loose. Success.

If you have (or are purchasing) a Goldenrod filter, you do need this wrench. I skipped buying one because I figured I could hand tighten the filter housing. When I turned on the pump, diesel sprayed everywhere. So I ordered the wrench. Even with the wrench, it took a lot of strength to stop the leak. I suppose it’s possible that my o-ring is not seated properly, but now that the leak has stopped, I’m leaving good enough alone.

If you plan to pump a lot of fuel or change your filters this is a great tool to have for the long run. Helps get the filters snug while reducing risk of breakage.
