Hi All. Seems like a dumb question, but how in the hell do you get a radiator cap off of a 1987 Delta 88? Gonna probably be doing a radiator flush this weekend and I do not understand how to get this particular cap off. I turn it, it gets loose but it still won't come off. Nothing ive ever seen before. Thanks in advance...

Holy shit, I feel really dumb. I guess I thought it was the 1992 Toyota I was working on a year ago, all ya had to do was twist that cap. It must of been that spray-on glue fumes getting to me working on the headliner, LOL...

Wow that radiator hasn't been flushed in years. The fluid looked like mud and chunks. There is still crap sticking to the pan I drained the fluid in. Got all new hoses and theremostat, although had to order a top hose so when it comes in ill replace the thermostat then as well. Since we live in the country and theres very little cops, we took the Delta and blew out the cobwebs. Runs much better with all the new parts.
