Broken transmission filler cap--How to remove?

Post by Bluefork1993 »

The transmission oil fill cap to my 93 KDX200 is broken off the threads, thus there's a threaded piece of rubber stuck in the transmission oil fill threads. This makes it hard to get new oil into the transmission.
Useful suggestions appreciated--and here's one thing I tried:
1. I drilled three holes in the broken off cap and used three screws to attach the cap onto the rubber body. With a pliers and by hand, it still wouldn't budge, just gradually pulled the screws out of the rubber...

Thanks,

Paul

This happened to me last year. Tap a sharpened wood chizzle into it and loosen
