Help wanted on how to remove this cap.
Wanting to do a nice restoration job on the planet rocker cover so need to remove the cap. I presumed it has a brass coller pressed in and the cap screwed onto the coller. I’ve tried to unscrew but it seams very tight
Don’t want to damage trying incase it’s not a screw in type.
Any advice appreciated
Thanks

WD40 
Or try to heat it up a bit, maybe that will do the job Kees

I’ve got what looks the same both inside and outside on the Vette and it screws on.

Re: Flip cap removal
Turns out it was a screw in! Just needed some heat!
Few hours of faffery later I’m very pleased with the results
