Tyre Valve Caps Stuck On

Recommended Posts

Guest FALAHPET

Hoping not to sound a bit dim,

 

has anyone got a solution to getting aluminium valve caps off?

 

Tried pliers, but daren't try harder for fear of damaging the valve. :)

Only way I could get mine off on my motorbike was by having new valves fitted. :)

As Jrod said, get them cut off and new valves put in. Have had the same happen to me, Dont use ally caps no more. Put some gease on the valve if you do put some on the car again.
