Hello Everyone
I tried to use the search function on this but was unsuccessful... My gas cap gasket seems to have failed, and leaks when tank is full and I turn hard. I have a metal cap with a cork gasket. Does anyone know where I could buy a new one? Thanks  |

I made one from some cork gasket material. Pretty straightforward and if you mess up, it's only a sheet of cork (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Someone did mention this. I could not see a spring in my cap is it under the cork gasket? |

What important is that the flat area where the gasket sits moves back and forth with spring pressure on it to force the gasket into contact with the filler inlet  |
