paradigm shift Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 Yes! another problem which I just remembered about, not many left to fix now! (..cue everything else breaking) Basically my fuel filler cap doesn't seal so I get a lovely wet patch. I've had a look but can't see any way of fixing it. Are they adjustable or do I need a new one?

There is a rubbish cork gaskety think in the link, not replaceable, in the end I changed mine (see klink in tech forum on fuel cap), as the costs of the LR bits to fix are high anyway HTH Nige PS Welcome to the madhouse....

darthdicky Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 I changed mine for a cheapy BM one and it cured it for a month or two, but it's now started leaking a bit again. I just avoid filling it up fully and staying on sideslopes for too long Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
