I just checked mine for the first time - it just pulls out. The hard part is overcoming the spring and threading the cap back on! I wore out the muscles in my hands and forearms trying to figure out how to get it to thread once I pushed it in far enough until I just unsecured the washer fluid reservoir and moved it aside, after which I got a ratchet and socket on the cap which was on the end of the tensioner. Then I used an open end wrench as a lever against that metal ridge right there to apply pressure to the back of the ratchet to over come the spring tension; I was just able to ratchet it back on.
