This is posted in the EFI section, but thought it might get more attention, and a little more action from the resident cybergeeks if it were copied here.

On a related issue, I found a great looking after market gas gap assembly made by Newton Equipment Ltd. It is model "zero 200". I looked for a dealer in the states who would show it in their on-line catalogue, and could not find it after an hour of searching. It is the perfect size and configuration for the A body filler cap. Take a look. http://www.newton-equipment.com/Z200new.htm

See if you have any better luck than I did. If you do find a dealer who sells it, would you post back here please?

DI, I found that page, and went to every dealer listed, but could not find the cap in question.

I guess I would be happy to buy a peice from one of our guys. Does it seal? What years is it for. I know the after market cap that is still available is for the 72-76 years, which means it is a sealing cap. That is the cap I want. Do you know if our slanter guy is making a cap for this application? This should not be a big deal. I was looking for a way to put a two piece filler tube in, so it was a simpler install. I came across this page while looking for tubes and hoses.

While I am on the subject, does anybody know if silicone hoses are gasoline compatible? I have a bunch of those guys in a box, and it would be nice if I could use one of them to connect the two sections of gas filler tube.Thanks

Sam,

I used to install that fitting on Uniflight boats. Should be able to get them from a marina catalog.

I cant remember who it is. Senior moment. Lou bought the first one and there is a thread on it. I remember some issues on the first one then all was well after that feedback. A search on gas cap might bring results.

In the thread that's linked, the URL is out of date. I emailed Steve a while ago asking about the caps, I know he has caps for earlier A-bodies, not so sure about slightly later ones.

This is the link he gave me, that listing is ended but still links to the rest of his stuff so you can check it all out.
