 Posted: Wed Feb 13, 2008 8:05 pm Post subject: Fuel cap |
 |
|
I haven't inquired in quite a while, but I am still in need of a fuel cap for a model 680FLP Commander. Does anyone have one available at a reasonable price? It's about 3" in diameter, with a zeus fastner type post in the center which secures to the anti-siphon flap with a flat head screwdriver. The flat spring which keeps tension on the post is nearly worn out, and I have to be real careful in securing the cap.
Thanks,
Ray Mansfield

Ray,
Having been through a fuel cap replacement myself, you're looking at
about $300 for the original-style replacement. For just a little bit
more than that, you can get a modern, lift-and-turn fuel cap. That's
what I did and I'm extremely happy. The chance of it coming unlocked in
flight and siphoning fuel overboard is remote, especially compared to
the original style.
There are probably several sources on the list for these new-style
caps....I'm sure someone will chime in.
Cheers,
/John
