Cap'n Oil Change Strikes (out) Again!



So I'm doing the change, get everything done, and start it up.  Sounds
good.  I back it off the ramps and then I hear gurgling spewing.  I
immediately shut it off and go look.  All the nice new oil is on the
floor of the garage.  Kitty litter to the rescue!

I tightened the filter by hand.  Did I not do it enough?  I went till
it was snug as a bug.  Did I over do it and fuck up the seal?  Never
had this problem before and am wondering what I did wrong.  I knew it
was going too well.

OT:  Is there some chemical or biological reason why my nose itches 10
times more when my hands are covered in oil and I can't scratch it?
