Hey everybody. The gas cap seal on my '78 is complete trash. The rest of it is fine (I'm putting a new lock on it.) Does anyone know of a gas cap that fits over the filler hole, or would recommend where I can get/how to make a new gasket for it? Thanks guys.

There used to be a tip or maybe it was something on the old mail list about making these? Can't remember. I will look.Gary Granger

Thanks for the links, Gary. I'm off to Home Depot soon anyway for wire brushes to clean my carb. One more thing to add to my shopping list.Tony K.

I got a bunch of rubber gasket material and I've started making new tank cap seals. Does anyone need one? Let me know if anyone does.Tony K.

If onyl this was two weeks ago. I ended up buying on off the internet because the rigs I made leaked and ruined the paint on my tank. I payed 25 bucks which included shipping for a 2 dollar part. That is ridiculous. I just got tired of trying to rig it up...Madness comes from within.
