I thought so but when I screwed mine off nothing come out....almost like i'm taking the wrong thing off. The cap does have oil on it though, so I will go try again.

...............that could be a problem..it is facing towards the filter a little infront of the filter

ok I uploaded a picture...the thing thats in the middle of the picture almost is the thing I took off where nothing came out....I only took the cap off and left the washer though.

Here is the pic

yup thats the bolt...nothing comming out

**iceman504** · 03-20-2008, 12:35 PM

Problem Solved... I was only screwing off the cap and not the whole bolt.

Thanks to everyone who responded!

That can be a tricky sumbitch...

Good to see another learning to take care of his own instead of sending it thru quicklube.
