Hey follks i was trying to take the cap off thebfuel filter canister on my 2014 cummins and broke the nut off the cap. I ended up pulling the whole canister off of the engine does anyone have a suggestion for removing the cap

Well i took the whole canister out of my truck and brought it to my local dealer i bought a new cap and had them hack the old one off thank god they didnt destroy it. They removed the cap for free because they knew they changed it last and i told the service manager that they put it on too tight with no lube. When i put it back together i just went a little more than hand tight and put antisieze on the threads. It should be good to go no leaks so far

Nice. But I would think they put it on with He-man strength they should have replaced the cap at no charge as well.
