Posted July 21, 2024Jul 21 comment_667543 Hi, I've got gas leaking from the gas cap when tank is near full. I suspect the 51 year old gas cap gasket has hardened and is no longer sealing and I don't want to keep the tank only half full. Has anyone used one of these e-bay reproduction gas cap seals (https://www.ebay.com/itm/275162293539?var=0&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&campid=5338590836&toolid=10044&customid=61d11ae9f5701daecbff7c749e37328f). If so how well did it work? Thanks. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/69051-reproduction-gas-cap-seal-any-experience/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

July 21, 2024Jul 21 comment_667546 The seller should tell what the material is. Might be fine, can't tell. Here's a different option. https://www.mcmaster.com/products/rubber-gaskets/o-rings-1~/square-profile-oil-resistant-buna-n-o-rings/ Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/69051-reproduction-gas-cap-seal-any-experience/#findComment-667546 Share on other sites More sharing options...
July 22, 2024Jul 22 comment_667550 Based on the reputation of the seller, I would say good to go. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/69051-reproduction-gas-cap-seal-any-experience/#findComment-667550 Share on other sites More sharing options...
August 4, 2024Aug 4 Author comment_667951 UPDATE: I bought and installed the reproduction seal from the ebay seller (link in my original post). Fit perfectly and so far no gas leaking from the filler cap. I am quite satisfied.
