Every time I change my sediment and carbon filters using that special tool to undo them it literally requires all my strength just to loosen them because they are murder tight. I have to do them up tight though otherwise they leak while filling the tank up. Today I actually snapped the plastic housing tightening it after it was leaking.
What can I use to make it easier, will PTFE tape help? Maybe it would allow me to not do it up not so tight and not get leaks. Or can I use a bit of grease on the thread? What grease/ would I use?
