I replaced my filler neck recently but when I accelerate hard or take a turn fast, gas still leaks out from the cap. Will a "quality reproduction" fix this? Has anyone bought a RS cap from Ground Up?
Do most people keep the steel cable on the gas cap? How do you keep the steel cable from scratching (more like gouging) the paint?
thanks

When I replaced my leaking gas cap with one from Rick's it stopped the leak.

Do you not have a problem with the cable touching the paint?
thanks

I cut the cable that came with the cap that I ordered from Rick's. To me it had disaster written all over it as far as the paint is concerned.

That sounds like a good idea, thanks. graemlins/beers.gif

I haven't had a problem with the stock RS gas cap cable chipping the paint on mine. Do you have it indexed correctly?

I bought a GM replacement cap for my 69Z that is supposed to be vented yet each time I remove the cap, I hear a huge vacuum release as I twist off the cap. Is this how it should be? Sure doesn't seem right.
