I guess it makes sense that after 35 years the gasket in the gas cap would rot out. I don't want this gasket dropping any more debris into my tank, so I cut out the old gasket.
Does anyone make a rubber replacement or does anyone know if a cork or rubber one is still available? Thanks |

Back when I was daily driving my car, I was constantly having issues with the leaking cap seal. I bought a new cap, no change, tried two gaskets, no luck, tried a piece of rubber over the whole filler neck, no luck. The only solution I found was to run it below half tank if you are going to be doing and hard driving. It annoyed me to no end. I figured the only solution was to bolt on the later model 75-76 screw on caps.
Would be interesting to see if a solution could be found for the early setup, as the new car as has that style fillerneck. |
