Post by: Rick Penick on June 06, 2023, 03:29:30 PM

97 Beaver Monterey cap seems to leak after it is parked. Anyone know where i can get a new cap or is something else wrong?


Thank you
Rick

Rick
My reservoir has two separate fills and caps so it may be different than yours but both caps are the same and appear to be black plastic fuel caps like you'd find on a car or truck.
Take the old one into NAPA or Auto Zone and have them match one up .or you could try a hydraulic shop in your area.

Hi Eric mine appears to be a pipe thread looks like 3/8" has a 6 sided hex head on it and looks to be vented . Yes i will try NAPA and see.
 Thanks again you have always been helpful!
