its for my oil filter housing, the stud that the oil filter goes on is loose.....thanks
 
First off, clean it with degreaser, then use red locktite and torque it, off the engine in a vise, till you think your going to break it. From memory I think the FSM states 35 ft-lbs, but don't take my word on it until you check the manual. Which you do have because you own a DSM right? ;)

If you don't have the proper deep socket just use the open wrench and torque it down as tight as you can. You don't want this coming loose again.
