Thank you Sir, I'm on it.

You'll be glad you did.
So much easier to get the billet cap off than the plastic OEM one.

Gotcha Greg, I just reach in there and twist.
I did have to replace my drain hose this last change.
Went to drain and the old one was nowhere to be found.
I also have a billet cap, no worries of stripping that but I do use a 28mm socket.

Now he mentioned putting lube on the o-ring.
What lube do you use?
Or do you just soak it in diesel fuel?

I used a tiny bit of motor oil but some fuel would work too. Just something to make the o-ring slick so it doesn't bind or get torn when you tighten the cap.

I have used motor oil in the past - just like stated above.
I purchased one of those aluminum caps many months ago.
I will just use engine oil - I will stay with the plastic cap until it begins to have issues - Then swap to this aluminum cap (Stinking thing best not leak)!
Still don't understand why these OEM caps are so expensive - It's just plastic!
The Reviews on this lid where all basically good - but yes I know ya can't trust these reviews for nothing.
There are a few nicks on the inside of the cap - the threads are deep and sharp as razors.
With the right size socket the OEM plastic cap - might last many years.
Note: I will wait till the motor & Plastic has cooled off overnight (at least 12-18 hrs) before attempting to unscrew the plastic lid.

I've used a small amount of fuel since 2008 and never had a problem on 7 trucks.
I've also never had a problem with the plastic cap either.
