[FC] FC Fuel Cap Question

[Dale Dewald]

Hello Scott,

I would appreciate it if you could post the part number of the replacement 
cap you just purchased.  I would love to have this one-way function for my 
Greenbrier.  The stock cap allows fuel to escape and dribble across the 
side of the vehicle when I make a right turn with a full tank.  I'd like to 
put an end to this.
