USADrifter Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 A few years ago I lost two fuel caps in a row and I still have no idea why. I had one remaining from a stored belly tank which I took to a local machine shop and the owner created an exact copy. This is in Georgia in the US, so I assume you have more economical alternatives locally. And yes, the holes were added for a lanyard ...
Guest Maj Millard Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 I'd hazard a guess at a marine shop, they do carry the one's fitted to my Lightwing..........................Maj...

Thank's mate,seems like the way to go.Good photo,I'm guessing the RH one's the original?

Thank's Maj,tried that,but all they had was a new marine plastic cap & flange which would mean removing the old alloy flange,& that's glassed into the tank ,so I'll probably get one machined up as Mr Drifter USA suggests.Cheer's.
zyg Posted May 2, 2013 Author Posted May 2, 2013 Finally got one machined up by a bloke with a cnc machine.Now heHas programmed it more can be made for about $50,should anyone need one.
Patrick Normoyle Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 Steve, just read your post, I might have one in my spares, but you probably don't need it now ! Sorry mate.
