I don't think a dust cap has enough metal to support the force required to remove the crankarm. I'm guessing it would take more than another washer to do the trick. I'm not an engineer though so take my opinion with a grain of salt.

nah, it won't work if the crank is pressed on. The cap is way too weak.
