Gas Cap

JoeStang

The cover for my gas cap popped off the other day and its now sitting at the bottom of the lake somewhere.

Its just the pretty cover, not the actual screw-in piece as thats still in place. Its mostly my fault, as the cap sticks out right where I have a padded dock corner, and it popped it off a couple times during docking.

Just wondering if anyone knew the part #, or if I can replace the whole unit with a universal cap.

Hmm, not seeing it anywhere on there. I think I'll have to look at the cap for the water tank, as it looks like the same cap but with the water symbol on it.

I can almost predict your next thread title... "water in my gas! how'd it get there?"

 

it's not something like this?:

It looks similar, but not exact. And no water can get into my tank through the cap right now. I'm only missing the metal outside cover, the actual threaded part/inside is still there. Its a 2-piece cap, and the outer part is whats missing.

i was trying to make a joke on you using a cap with the water symbol on it as the gas cap. someone would make a mistake... get it? 

i'll keep my day job...

JoeStang

Ah, I gotcha. You joke but I just read another story on a guy in Florida that filled a rod holder with 70 gallons of fuel. I'd guess the bilge pump isnt really designed as a fuel pump. :O

I took a look at the water tank cap yesterday and there are zero manufacturer markings on it. Off to the dealer.......

Sure, I'll take a pic tomorrow. It does have to go to the dealer for a small issue next week, so maybe I'll see if they can help me out.
