Has anyone had issues with the oil cap gaskets swelling and making it difficult to unscrew the oil cap?
Are there better sources for the gaskets and O-ring? The O-ring was so expanded it wasn't really seated in the groove. And the flat gasket was so swelled that after i got it out I can't get the cap to go back on.  |

EPDM rubber swells when exposed to oil and gas
NBR rubber is what you want |
