The device includes an elongate body portion formed of resilient, bendable material defining a longitudinally extending central body formed with a predetermined lengthwise dimension sufficient to span a distance between two of the openings and two end portions formed integrally with the central body and projecting oppositely outwardly therefrom with the end portions being sized to fit within the openings and being of a sufficient lengthwise dimension to engage and displace at least a portion of the gasket to allow waste oil to be poured or otherwise drained from the filter cartridge. The method includes providing such a device, inserting the end portions into openings in the filter, pressing the end portions inwardly to displace at least a portion of the gasket, and pouring or otherwise draining waste oil from the filter.</p> |
