anyone got any creative ideas on how to remove the oil fill assembly from the generator stand. I need to switch it to my alternator stand but cant get it off. I thought about welding a big washer to an extension but dont want to waste the extension.

if you can't get the tool to remove it, then you can take a wide chisel or a thick piece of metal and cut it to fit the nut. there's no easy way. the tool don't work very well. pb blast it for a while before trying it.
