  • Gas Cap Rubber

    Does anyone have any ideas of where I can get the rubber gasket that goes inside the cap on my 78 E?

    Or has anyone fabricated one.

    I thought of maybe using fuel line or something of that nature and making one. Any Suggestions...

    Check the dealership first, not sure if they are still available or not.

    Also, someone found that large plumbing washers would do the job. Can't remember what size, but take the old one with you and get one the same size.
