JoshThePonce Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 I've got some CF Nismo valve caps and i can't for the life of me get them off to pump my tyres up, they're completely seized on and just won't seem to budge, any suggestions? Quote
M13KYF Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 seen this happen with other members, particularly a problem with cheap caps. Dont do anything until you get to a tyre place. It can rip the valve trying to get them off. Next time put a bit of copper grease on the thread or buy some descent caps like richbrook ones for example. Quote
Adrian@TORQEN Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 Have the same problem with one of them... Bought from a trader in here. Quote
KC350Z Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 Just an idea pour some warm water over then for abit shoule expand abit to maybe free them up worked on mine but was plastic Quote
SteveRS Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 Happens a lot with the metal valve caps unfortunately, which is why I stock the plastic nismo and Z logo valve caps Quote
dave_c Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 Try heating them up carefully, my friends got stuck on his BMW, but it was just the grub screw that was seized as they were anti theft ones! Quote
