Just bought an Orange P7 Pro and it has fox vanilla R forks on it.
My question is, Are they air sprung, oil, spring forks? The blue cap cover on the top left hand side wont come loose and when I turn it with pliers, the the whole top that the cap is screwed into turns??????
What do I do?

They are coil sprung with an oil damper.

Wanted to see what was under the cap to see if there was a valve for my pump like on my Float 130 forks on my trek. Does that mean the cap wont come of at all? Whats the blue cap there forif it does nothing?0 -
One leg contains a coil that has a top cap with adjuster to alter preload. It sounds like this is stiff if you have turned it and the whole lot is coming undone. Try a squirt of WD40 (or take off completety and try and free up, then replace - use a socket)
The other leg has a flat cap which keeps the oil in. At the bottom of the leg should be a rebound damper adjuster.
