How did the Jeep automobile get its name?

The origin of the name Jeep is somewhat of a mystery. There is more than one explanation, but no one knows exactly how the name began. One popular idea is that the name jeep came from the military designation "GP" for "General Purpose." The original prototype produced by Ford was designated Ford Model GP. The G actually stood for Government and the P stood for 80" wheelbase. Another idea is a cartoon character called Eugene the Jeep who could go anywhere is where the name came from. Another theory is the word jeep is military slang of a new recruit. This was the first 1/4 ton 4wd vehicle the Army had ever seen so it was new. Other theories are that there term comes from a small Modine Tractor called Jeep. There are other theories. In my opinion it more than likely came from the name Ford gave it which was GP but I may be wrong.

How can you get oil cap off of 98 jeep when the top has come apart from the bottom of the cap?

Ugh! I had the same thing happen to me. What I did was get a wide bladed flat tipped screwdriver and place it sideways into the remains of the cap that is stuck into the valve cover, there are notches in there that the top of the cap used to grip. You set the tip of the screwdriver into one of these notches and push down with some force to make the shaft of the screwdriver make solid contact with the top of the oil cap, then turn counter clockwise with the handle.

if you have difficulty with that insert a second screwdriver above the shaft of the first ( like a T ) and push against the second screwdriver.

All you are doing is giving yourself some leverage, then go get a new oil cap.
