That trick is no longer valid as the filter's walls are pretty thin and almost guaranteed to get what you got. It will take a little creativity and perserverance to get this thing off. Channel locks would be my next weapon, tryng to get as close to the base of the filter as possible. Just shoot for a little turn at a time or more shred action will happen. I would be happy with 1/8" of a turn at a time and get a new grip. Post your technique you succeeded with. To avoid this in the future though, apply a little "Door-eze" to the rubber seal that will contact the oilfilter housing. This stuff is bee's wax and will not affect the seal, just make it WAY easier to remove the next time. I do it on every filter change. Cost? about $2 from your local hardware store.

Should I get a new parmesan grater or just buy parmesan that's already shredded?
It comes down to two factors, taste and convenience. Many believe that freshly-grated or shredded cheese tastes better than pre-shredded, because cheese that is packaged already shredded is coated in an anti-caking agent that can affect taste and melting. However, many prefer the convenience of pre-shredded cheeses. One final thing to consider is price--you do tend to pay more for convenience, so you might get more bang for your buck if you purchase parmesan in block or wedge form, and grate it yourself.

What do you do if a compression test for a Mitsubishi Montero reveals below average compression?
Common Montero problem. It is time for new rings. Oil is seeping into your cylinders. You can drive the truck like this for a long time without really having a problem - just make sure you keep checking your engine oil level. If your state does emission checks, you're going to fail. If you get the rings done, you'd do well to complete an engine rebuild while you're at it; the motor's already wide open, so you're going to see significant savings on labor.
