Re: Gas caps-Mains

[James Zimmerman]

Doug My suggestion is to do away with the wing tank caps with the float. I use vented wing tank caps and a rain pruf fuel cap on the header tank. Skyport lists both in their cat. 1-800-624-5312.Vented wing tank caps are about $20. Rain pruf nose cap is $45. Most caps with the wire wear as you described.  Jim N99456. ----- Original Message ----- From: Doug Davis To: Coupers Sent: Saturday, April 24, 1999 7:01 PM Subject: Gas caps-Mains Does anyone know where to acquire "new" caps for the Mains? Our caps seem to be excessively worn by the float rod, causing excessive siphoning of fuel while in flight. I really haven't looked closely at the caps, so there may be some other solution.  Gaskets etc.? Doug-94023
