@mwilk012The tightness of the oil filter cap does not affect its sealing ability, so long as it is fully screwed on. Most important is that you put the O ring in the right groove.
YUP!
O-ring in the right groove is very very important!
It's also a good idea to put some oil on the new o-ring before you roll it onto the oil filter cap housing..
I always tell guys/gals here, when you unscrew/remove the 68191350AA Oil Filter Housing Cap..... as soon as you remove it from the JL/JT.... lay it on a piece of cardboard or whatever and take a close up cellphone pic of it with the oil filter on it....which clearly shows the exact groove the o-ring is residing in....
This way you have a reference as to where the o-ring need to go. It's easy to get distracted and then have an oh chittt moment in regard to which groove did the o=ring go into.
