Guest FALAHPET Posted July 16, 2006 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jrod 7 Posted July 16, 2006 Only way I could get mine off on my motorbike was by having new valves fitted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ste996 0 Posted July 17, 2006 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
