The fuel cap on my regular wouldn"t come off. I tried heating it and all that accomplished was unsoldering it from the tank. Now I"ve got the thing in my hand and thinking OK now I can get it in the vise and do some real work on it (ha ha). After 2 months (off and on) of heating, soaking, beating and trying to turn with a 24" pipe wrench, I finally gave up. I brought it to work and asked Brad in maintenance to see if he could get it apart for me. A couple of days later he brouht it out to me in 2 pieces. He told me that he had soaked it then put it in the vise and got on it with a large pipe wrench (does this all sound familiar). When he started to turn it the cap flew out of the vise and fell to the floor. He picked it up and the cap would move slightly in the sleeve. He tapped it on the vise a few times to losen some more rust and shortly he had it off. If I would have just thrown it on the floor in disgust, it may have shortened this ordeal. Dan
