fla 9 Posted January 27, 2010 one of my dust caps has got stuck :epicfail: and i've tried removing it with penetrating oil and then holding the stem and turning teh cap with pliers. No luck. Any ideas? Serves me right for using alloy dust caps in the winter, i guess. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
