I leave the caps off the (AirStop) tubes.  Works fine for me.  Using a 4" screw-on extension through a fancy spring loaded door in the pants - same idea as a pugged hole others use.  I like the looks of Ed's straight-on chuck from Harbor Freight.

 Hi Bill,

 I used a short length of plastic (polyethylene) tubing with ID slightly less than the OD of he cap. I split it to about a half inch from the end. I pushed it onto the cap. There was enough friction to unscrew and hold the cap. After filling the tire, I re-installed the cap and withdrew the tube. Worked well for three years.

  

 Regards,

I gently come in from the side with a polymer putty knife.  Pops right off!

 So how do you deal with getting the valve stem cap on and off with only a

 one inch hole? Go up from the sides or do you just not use a cap?

 

 Thanks
