Jimmy80 Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 My 17 RR came with a csp fuel cap , when I try and tighten it it’s like the threads are pulling through when you try and get it tight , I’ve had it fall off a couple of times in crashes now so need to sort it , will it be the tank or cap at fault Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldilocks Posted December 27, 2020 Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 Csp cap is ally , petrol tank is plastic, more likely the thread in the tank is stripped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lineaway Posted December 29, 2020 Report Share Posted December 29, 2020 Just because it looks good does not make it right. I would try home made gasket to fix it or the original cap before buying a tank. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy80 Posted January 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2021 Sadly not got the original cap , I’m wondering if the previous owner had fitted the wrong cap , looking into it more the caps bottoming out in the tank and pushing the threads off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
