rh71 is on a distinguished road
valve stem cap stuck

have metal stem caps that an installer put on there a while ago. I got 3 of them off but this 1 is turning the whole stem, along with the TPMS. I've tried WD40... any other suggestions and/or tricks? I've got ABS caps that aren't metal to replace them... for this specific reason.


here's an image of the TPMS (middle)... does this thing break easily near the stem? The whole thing is the TPMS correct, not just the green part?
