Where to find a sturdy, good fitting cap wrench for the OEM oil filter. I'd like one that fits well and doesn't need to be pounded on and off but, fits well. Any brands jump out here? Ed Hayes

Got mine from Med Center Mazda - banner ad at the top of these pages. http://www.mazdaparts.org/mazda-3-skyactiv-oilfilter.html. 5 Mazda filters and the wrench for $35.
I own several - one for each car in the family - and I suspect that good fit means pound (or at least gently pry) off. All of mine go on easily but off can sometimes be a slight challenge. I just have generic cheap ones though.

It's a CTA model A255. Until you asked (and I looked), I never even considered that these have a make and model!
