dom.joy 87 Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 This might be a stupid question but I can't seem to remove the seal for the cap to cooler on my obd2 vr6. The seal is flush to the cap and cannot be gripped?or is it not replaceable and not need removing?Thanks Link to post Share on other sites

Lukey. 381 Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 yea just try not to gouge either of the mating surfaces when removing the rubber Link to post Share on other sites

Lukey. 381 Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 this is older but illustrates it better because its metal so the colour contrasts, the black should be fully removed, yours being flush it will have shrunkit should be plumped up and proud, like this Link to post Share on other sites
