my fuel cap leaks. it sucks! I get fumes in the car and when it's full it even spills out. the rubber looks like it's been there since the 50's and it probably has

does anybody in brisbane have a good one that they want to sell me? I'll be going to the show on sunday

thanks!

Hey, dont bother with a whole new cap. You can get a new gasket for it. If its a semaphore '60 it should have the "hump" gas tank with the 80mm cap. If you cant find a gasket, just get a sheet of 3mm cork and cut it out yourself. Or you can use solvent resistant rubber.

I had the exact same problem and it shitted me to no end until i just replaced the damn gasket

thanks jon
yeah why was I thinking to replace the whole cap? didn't get enough sleep yesterday
I'll try to find a gasket thanks
i'm going high on fuel fumes!

ok the gasket is now BROKEN and I am about to be poisoned!

Does anybody carry these fuel cap gaskets? I need one for a 2 prong fuel cap (a 1960 bug)

if anybody is going to klubfest on sunday and can supply one to me please let me know I need it !!

just go to clark rubber or soemthing and get some fuel resistant rubber. it's a piece of piss.
