Gas Cap Gasket Mtl????

Postby Moto Chuck » Mon Apr 10, 2017 2:49 am

Does anyone know a source for replacement gaskets for the filler caps on the NC 250-350 bikes? Is there a good material that will seal and not be dissolved by modern ethanol gasoline?

Can use non-ethanol most of the time but can be hard to find when you need it.

Still need Gasket or Gasket Mtl.

Guzzino has gas cap seals for bevel singles. There were two sizes of gas caps so check the dimension of the cap you have and compare with the dimensions Guzzino provides.

Eurojamb.com might have one if you want to search the site.

Bevel Heaven has the two sizes but typically very expensive.

The overseas sources (Road&Race, Gowanloch, Lacey, Classic Ducati, Motocicliveloci, etc.) probably have gaskets if USA sources don't have what you want.

I just went to the local auto parts store, got some cork-looking type material and cut my own. Works fine.

Also cut my own valve cover gaskets with this stuff. Cut thinner gaskets with paper-type gasket material, or use Yamabond and no gasket.
Put a Mikuni on it!

Thanks for the replies! Found the gaskets at Guzzino for $9.00 plus shipping.
