[DML] Re: Gas Tank Filler Cap



Same thing happens in Illinois. The technician wanders around the 
car, finally asks where the cap is (no flap), takes it and tries to 
fit it to the machine, scratches head a few times, and then 
checks "passed" on the form. Same drill every time.

I'd be suprised that a generic cap would fit tight, remember that if 
it doesn't fit tight, it's an invitation to rainwater in the gas tank 
due to where it's located.
