Need help urgent!

[bduke23]

Workin on my 93 ranger with 3.0l, can not for the life of me budge the oil filler cap. This is especially frustrating because I have already (stupidly) drained it completely of oil and changed the filter. How do you get the filler cap off? Or is mine somehow stuck? Need help quickly, because I need to move it tonight and without oil... I am screwed.

some can really be hard to get off. make sure it hasn't melted itself to the manifold by accident. you might try using a large pair of locking pliers or oil filter pliers and very carefully try to screw it off. i'd try to get a replacement there before the auto stores close in case it breaks. good luck with that.
