Default 4.7L engine: easy removal engine oil cap?

Hi guys,

I have the 4.7L engine and the engine oil cap is very difficult to remove. The air filter hoses are in the middle difficultingaccess and the cap gets very tight over time. Is there any tool to remove and replace this cap easily?

Thanks!

I've found it is easier to undo the three clips holding the air filter cover and lifting it off. Once you lift it off and remove the vaccum hose you can push it back and out of the way. This gives you more room for leverage and it certainly makes it easier.
