I want to get a decent petrol cap, was thinking of getting a pukka carbon surrond that rivits in, and then get a lockable petrol cap type thing to match, but as so many cars have that fake stick on shit i wasnt sure if there were any better alternatives ?

 

i had a complete replacement one for my mk4 metal jobby. cost me about 30quid from some place called "motique" in hayes, kent

not got no more pics tho

wasnt no fake stick on shite n looked v good IMHO

functional too

 

I have a Mafco one on mine (mk4 erst), its a complete replacement one, cost about £30 from the local car shop and looks pretty good.

HTH, Duncan

 

ooohh i know that place... my boyfriend loved that shop.. whenever i drove past he wanted to stop i miss car shops.

 

sorry if i am bringing up some painful memories for ya, truly I am sorry, must be hard to keep being reminded of happier times, heres a banana to cheer you up a bit ops wrong icon

 

Andy RST has a very nice one

 

noo thats ok... its nice.. i have to drive past it every day anyway. i miss being around cars and being dragged round endless car shops at teh weekend, so its nice to hear what everyones doing. thanks for the banana

 

Gra, im sure the escort's have a petrol cpa that lets in air as the petrol i sucked out the tank, adamS2rst (im sure it is) had problems with fuel hoses leaking etc cos he didnt have an original one which let in air, so if air doesnt get in the tank could impload?!?

 

As above, I am the very same that had trouble with aftermarket petrol caps, wouldn't bother IMO, threw it straight in the bin when I knew it was causing my problems! Stick to the original ford item, it is made for the car, if it aint broke don't try n fix it!

 

www.dimma.com used to do em. not been on the site for about a year tho...

 

220TC have you got a pic of the cap on your RST? Thinking of getting one myself
