How do you remove a oil filter cap when its stuck?

to the right if of oil cap the silver cannister with the nut shape on it unscrew theres a cartride filter there

here's the whole process
Start the engine and let it idle in neutral until the radiator fan goes on. Hotter oil drains more completely. Shut off the engine and let the oil drain into the drain pan for five minutes.

2 Unscrew the engine oil-filler cap. You don't need to remove it, since you just want air to get in so the oil can drain. The engine oil cap is labeled SAE 5W-30 and is on the right side of the engine toward the front for both the V6 and the V8 engine. The dipstick is an inch or two away on both engines.

3 Slide under the car engine and locate the oil drain bolt. It will be the lowest point on the engine. Don't mistake the transmission fluid drain plug for the oil drain bolt. You can tell them apart because the metal around the engine oil drain bolt will still be hot.

4 Loosen the drain bolt counterclockwise with a crescent wrench. If it doesn't budge, use a closed end wrench for a better grip. Slide a drain pan under the engine oil drain bolt. Unscrew and remove the drain bolt by hand. Work on the oil filter while the oil drains.

5 Identify the oil filter as baseball sized; a cylinder about as tall as it is wide. It will be on the underside of the engine. Orient your oil filter wrench to grip when turned counterclockwise, if it's the type that has an oriented grip. (Some oil-filter wrenches grip when turned one direction but not the other.) Fit the oil filter wrench over the oil filter. Turn it, preferably with a socket wrench, though a crescent wrench suffices. The male socket goes in the center hole of the oil filter wrench. Just loosen the filter with the wrench. Unscrew and remove the filter by hand.

6 Screw the drain bolt back in, after draining for an hour. If you use a torque wrench, make sure to tighten to 29 foot-pounds. Edmunds recommends replacing the washer, since drain bolt washers are compressible and wear out fast.

7 Remove the O-ring that seals between the filter and the engine. Clean the engine cavity with a rag, including rubber O-ring residue. Coat the new O-ring on the new filter with clean oil, hold it in the cavity and screw the new filter on manually until you feel some resistance. Set the oil filter wrench to grasp clockwise. Place the oil filter wrench on the new filter and turn clockwise an additional 2/3 revolution. Be careful not to overtighten, which can lead to an oil leak. For the oil filter, use GM part 25177917 or ACDelco part PF2129 for the 3.6L V6, and use GM part 89017342 or ACDelco part PF61 for the 4.6L V8.

8 Pour six quarts of motor oil in the refill cap opening of the V6 engine and eight quarts. into the V8 engine. Cadillac recommends that you use only an oil that meets GM Standard GM4718M. Otherwise, you could cause engine damage that is not covered by your warranty. Cadillac also recommends using SAE 5W-30 viscosity oil, with the API "for gasoline engines" starburst on the packaging.

9 Check the dipstick, which is one or two inches from the engine oil-filler cap. The oil should come to the cross-hatched area, but not higher. Overfilling can reduce mileage and even harm the engine. Screw the filler cap back on.

10 Start the engine and idle it in neutral until the radiator fan goes on. Inspect the drain bolt and the filter for oil leaks. Take the car off any supports.

11 Reset the engine oil life system after every oil change. Scroll the Driver Information Center (DIC) until it displays "Oil Life." Hold the reset button until it reads 100%.

good luck

You will first need the appropriate tools and equipment on hand before you start. A jack and jack stands to support your vehicle on both sides a wheel chock is always a good idea too. A drain pan to catch waste oil, An oil filter removal tool and either a wrench or ratchet and socket to remove your oil pan drain plug Don't forget your replacement oil filter and manufacturers recommended grade of oil to use. 1st rule be safe change oil when vehicle is not at full operating temp or oil may burn you. When your vehicle is raised and properly supported, open your hood, remove oil cap to allow venting, then underneath vehicle, place drain pan beneath oil pan drain plug and remove plug and set it aside. Allow oil to drain completely then reinstall drain plug and tighten without overtightening. Next place drain pan below oil filter and remove filter, install new filter (tighten by hand 1/4 turn after it feels snug (Do Not overtighten as this will destroy rubber seal and you will have a big mess on your hands) Refill oil with correct amount and weight of motor oil (see owners manual if needed) If you got any oil on vehicle I would clean it off before starting it otherwise start vehicle check for leaks, if all is good removie vehicle from jack stands and check oil level on flat ground to ensure it is full

I had a problem kinda like yours once. It took me a while to figure out why but finally found that from a previous oil change the rubber gasket from the old oil filter had come off and stuck to the car so when I would put a new oil filter on that has a new gasket I was ending up with 2 rubber gaskets on at once.

On the v6 which is the largest motor available on the fusion it is located at the front of the motor facing the cooling fan and radiator. On the 4cylinder it is located also at the front of the motor under plastic cover. take the two 10 bolts of and slide cover off. This filter is a cartridge type remove cap and reinstall cap with a new cartridge and o ring.

how about ck,,coil,pick up coil, or modular,to see if u have an off voltage going to spark plugs

API SG or SG/CD look on the Cap or Label of the Oil Container (Quart, Gallon, or 5 Quarts).
10W 30 for Winter.
10W 40 for Summer.
V6 3.0L gets 4.0-quarts.
V6 3.3L and 3.8L gets 4.5 quarts.
Always change Oil Filter with the Oil Change.

The insert or cartridge filters are easy to change..You must jack up the front of the car, remove the engine belly pan. in the front of the motor there is a black cylindrical housing for the oil filter cartridge..On the bottom is a cap that just screws off..Unscrew the cap, take it off, slide the old insert off, then slide the new one on..Screw the cap back on and voila! you are finished..If the insert came with a new rubber o-ring, make sure to replace the old one on the cap.

I just changed my oil on my RAV4 V6 and the first thing is you are not looking for the regular canister but a oil housing like on the old farm tractors. You just replace the inside filter cartridge. The canister is in front on the engine on the passenger side. Use a 3/8 socket to open the bottom and drain. Next use a oil filter cap wrench to remove the housing. Actully this is a less messy than my chevy and more "green."

On the V6, the filter is located on the bottom front of the engine on the passenger side. It is silver and looks like an oil filter cap wrench. It is not the traditional oil filter where you replace the entire unit. With this type you remove the cap, drain the oil, and replace the paper filter element and 2 gaskets.

to get the cap off use a standard 65mm-67mm filter wrench "end cap" that you stick on your 3/8" drive ratchet like this one..
