How do you remove the oil filler neck?

[Blazzin Joe]

I cannot get the neck out, on side will come up and you can see the o-ring but i cannot get the other side of it free.... How do you remove it?

Okay - I'll be honest and say I've looked through every book I have here and I can't find out how to disconnect the neck from the valve cover.

If someone out there knows how to do this, please post so I can add it to my library.

(and I want to paint my covers some day) ;)

I cracked mine while learning how. It rotates counterclockwise, then lifts out. At least it does now... :)

About an 1/8 of a turn.
