I would just add that if you are going to use a socket to remove the filter cap, to use a six point socket. A 12 pointer will chew up the hex over time. I use a 1/2" drive 1 1/4" six point socket with a 3/8" reducer on a long extension and a long-handle ratchet. This ensures that you don't have too much torque at hand when it comes to installing the cap.
