I’ve been looking and reading what I can to learn why this happens with this canister. Why plastic, how the cap seams to get tighter and moving the location so the service would be easier.

No evidence at all. The threads looked fine. Shop guy’s said they have seen this many times. Was told the Billard cap would have better results and not to Go with spect of 22.5ftp. Just hand tight and a 1/4 turn.

Update on my cap. I went to a Cummins repair shop (for the big boys) and they tried all the things I had done then they brought out the big boy air chisel, that didn’t work. The next step was to remove the canister put it in a marg Vice along with a larg pipe wrench and finally it came loose. No...

Yes the drain was opened

A billet cap is in a box waiting to be put on.

Yes I did try after a drive and still no luck. Even trying a small impact driver. Can’t wait to see what this is going to cost just to remove a cap.

I agree, I’ll be calling a Cummins dealer on monday

I have been using a 28mm 6 point with the extensions. Was also using a large fork bar set at 140 filbs. It broke a 1/2 inch universal joint.

I’ve been unable to remove the cap . At my last filter change I oiled the O ring but not the threads. Any idea on how to get it off.
