Hi again - So took the Soarer to local mechanic and he said:
Fuel cap looks good - restrictors rarely leak - and yours looks fine (as there was no leak).
When i got back home i noticed a ring of liquid where the rubber grommet touches the fuel tube.
He said it's possibly fuel vapor from a corroded rubber line or something, but would charge 200 or so minimum to drop tank and check it out - if that's even the issue.
Is it likely that I do have the wrong fuel cap? It looks the same as another 3 soarer fuel caps i've seen - but i've read that sometimes on compliance they give you an identical looking toyota fuelcap, but is infact wrong. Thread might be too long or what not...
My cap clicks 3+ times. O-ring looks great. You can wiggle cap a little once on.
If someone could show me a pic of their GENUINE v8 soarer fuel cap (not something given after compliance or similar) - that'd be great.
I'd be after a pic of the top, and the thread.
I have no idea what can cause this reflux of fuel or whatever it is causing streaks down my fuel lid...
Any links or info much appreciated
