[1] The Hiflo HF184 has unusual facets, so the standard Piaggio cap-style tool (available from Scooterwest) might not work. The MP3's oil filter housing makes it difficult or impossible to use a contracting-band type tool, and the narrow space between the housing and filter eliminates most contracting "finger" types. However I was able to squeeze a Performance Tool W54073 cap-style tool, purchased from Advance Auto Parts, onto the HF184, and the stamped sheet metal W54073 is thin enough to clear the housing. (A similar tool from NAPA, p/n 77-3862, fits the filter reasonably well but because it is plastic, it's too thick to fit inside the housing.) Getting the W54073 off the filter afterward takes some doing; I put a 3/8" square nut on the end of a long machine screw, inserted it into the socket drive hole, turned it 45°, and pulled on the screw to remove the tool from the filter.

[1] NGK p/n codes:
-7- = hotter, -8- = cooler, -9- = coolest
-K- = copper, -I- = iridium (do not gap)
-B = has end cap, -X = threaded end

[2] There seems to be some consensus that the CR7EIX is the best choice, but will require an end cap from an old plug (the OEM plug's end cap might not be removable).
