You dont need to remove the cap, but if you do, when you replace it, dont push it down all the way, as its the breather.

ya thats where you soposed to fill it but its a pain in the **** everyone usually just fills through the top hole, and make sure you only put in 1.9 litres. the other hole is situated so when it starts to pour out its full, at 1.9 litres.
