Installation Notes

Verify the cap style, neck diameter, and listed fitment before installation. Clean the filler neck sealing surface, then thread the cap on by hand until it seats securely. Do not overtighten a screw-on oil filler cap, as excessive force can damage the cap or neck. Confirm that the gasket or seal is seated correctly after installation.
