Graco strainer cleaning

[srl]

'08 29' Amberjack new to me. Im kind of embarrased to have to ask how do I clean the strainers? I've delt with strainers & I just unscrewed the jar to clean I tried to unscrew these but I can't get them to unscrew, do I have to use something like a oil filter wrench? Is there a trick?

That's the part you need but Google around for a good deal. Sometimes you find them on sale, or knock-off less expensive versions too. $25 @ WM

Depending what you are trying to clean out, you can also back flush from your AC discharge through hull and flush crud out of the strainer. If for an engine strainer, that wont work.
