I would, but I'm affraid to twist the whole valve cover off lol.

I would use my hands, but I'm tired of all the scars and burns at this point. I usually wear gloves now.

I could use one of those. I hand tight my oil cap, but have difficulty removing it. I don't have this problem with two other cars. Just the S2K...

I had a lousy Spoon cap that when heated would not fit anymore. Weirdest thing. This happened to a couple of people.
