You can make a tool for a buck or so. A throttle body top plate screw has the right size (E4 torx). Use that as a guide for getting another bolt at a hardware store.
Or you can just use the TB plate screw with a vice grips on the non-threaded portion.

Just go to any hardware store, get a E4 torx screw, get a wing nut and a jam nut. Spend all of 30 seconds putting it together as shown above. And you have an Opti cap removal tool that cost less than a cheeseburger.
I should auctions these things on Ebay and make a killing.

And BOL on marketing it, we are such orphaned engines that I wish you the best.
Not trying to argue or put you down, but I did just what you said, and it did not work out.

This just ain't so. I did go to the local hardware store (Ace), they thought I was speaking Greek.
