Fulvia S2 fuel cap seal replacement
« on: 03 April, 2023, 02:35:10 PM »
Need a new rubber seal for the Fulvia fuel cap as the original has gone hard and brittle.
Are these available?
TIA

I had mine replaced on my Flavia cap by Omicron a couple of years ago. I just popped it in the post and they dismantled it fitted a new rubber seal and then riveted it back together. Looks like new.

Flavia caps not the same. Fulvia S2 caps are trickier to restore. Look for a good secondhand one??
Its not the winning but taking part! or is it taking apart?

Noted on your comment, will look for a replacement as my current cap would fail an MOT not that I need one but I like to stay within the law.

That’s probably what I will be doing, thank you.
