Default Oil Cap Problem, Solved!

Ok, how many times has your oil cap popped off because you couldn't tighten it enough, Or how many times did you have to tap the oil cap with something to take it off?

well here's the solution!

I know it looks like wood in the pic, but it's steel. This is a prototype.

Mine will be made of stainless mor than likely.

WTF? why on earth would you want to use that? Use a rag and tighten it with your hand.

LOL.....The oil cap never popped off on me, but I have had to put some muscle into it once or twice to get it off from the cover.

Slap a Mugen logo on that thing and somebody will buy it, and pay too much too.

lol so true.

I seen a bunch of threads of people loosing caps.

I guess I have big manly hands and it's hard for me to grip a small cap. But seriously, my cap is tough to get off. Even tapping it sometimes I can't get it off.

Well either way I'll have a nice stainless one in my trunk for those days when its too hot and cant get my hands on it.
