Oil Filler Cap
I need to add some oil to my car and my oil filler cap seems to be stuck or on really really tight. Is there anything I can do to loosen it up?

Hi,
I just bought my first saturn yesterday. While inspecting it, I found that the oil filler cap only rotates about 1/4 of a turn and then pulls straight up. Hope this helps. |

Re: Oil Filler Cap

Re: Oil Filler Cap
After you have torqued the hell out of it, you may need a pry bar to get it off!!!
