Anyone ever had a Vortex Gas Cap sieze on them?

Sometimes mine was pretty hard getting on and off. A little squirt of WD or some grease helps. Every time I would take my vortex cap off you would hear it let out pressure. I tried adjusting the little allen screw so the gas could breath but it still did the same thing so I just got ride of the allen because I was afraid it would vapor lock on me.

+ 1 on the light NON-moly grease.  WD-40 will evaporate.

Anti-seize and moly grease is the worst thing to use.  It will mix with the fuel and you don't want that on your valve guides or cylinder walls

There is a product called anti seize that should be used on the threads of your spark plugs.  It's for when you want to remove a threaded object alot and don't want the problem of galling.

Use some of that on the cap.  It's a very common problem.
