This past weekend I tried changing the
oil on my new '85 Accord.  The oil filter
is on the bottom back side of the engine.
The drive shaft, exhaust pipe, etc.,
make reaching the filter a problem and
very difficult to remove.  It is in a
tight space and I can't get good leverage
on the filter with my filter wrench. 
When the filter finally came loose, oil
leaked out all over the place.

Does anyone have suggestions on how to
get the filter off easily and with less
oil spilled?  Is there a better type of
filter wrench available?
