Have a problem for the first time trying to get the lid off the catch can. It seems like the twist off lid has bonded to the can(welded). Cannot budge it. I've let it cool overnight and still no luck. Any suggestions, thanks!

No it's removable and I got it off last night. I just wrapped some rubber gloves
around the can and gently tightened in my table vise and was able to twist off the lid. But still crazy it was so tight that I had to resort to that. No damage to the can or lid so at least I know what I gotta do in the future. :thumbsup:

Lol the same thing happened with my JLT can. I like shit torqued but since I can't torque the can I tightened it tighter than hell. Next time I went to loosen it I had to put on frog grip gloves to get the thing off.

It doesn't need to be too tight to seal and then it comes off easier next time.

Thought I was the only one. That's what I did this time around - just barely grabbing but on enough. I guess I didn't know my own strength when I tightened the first few times. Thanks for the help guys,!
