Sierra Fuel Cap Not Fitting...
Sierra Fuel Cap Not Fitting...
Hey all Im new to this -
Anyway we have just bought a 1991 Sierra & it is missing its fuel cap -
Ive tried tons of the aftermarket ones that are suppost to fit but none of them do...
Just wondering if this is common or has my car got a diffrent fuel tank or it may have been played with so now the fuel cap will not fit
Thanks in advance!

I tried 4 different caps from Supercrap and 3 from Ripco before I gave up.Lil'Loki wrote:Would Repco carry a variety of fuel caps?
Thinking about replacing mine as the suzuki barrel (keylock) is crap in the cap.
I found the Carry cap by accident.
Maybe buy a cap listed as Carry Van not Sierra.

Since I bought my Sierra it has had some sort of no-name aftermarket cap. Doesn't look like it seals properly, sits at a upward angle etc. But it does; the tank still releases pressure when the cap is taken out, locks on. Just looks off...
Wheeling on completely wicked angles, without even looking stable.
Van-tastic!

These would make a great short term fix. The main concern I'd have is if you can't lock the cap, your fuel can be stolen.evilrubberchicken wrote:go the emergency cap from a servo!

If people are game enough to do 'drive offs' at a servo's, syphoning fuel out of someone's car is nothing.
As my fuel gauge doesn't work. I judge the fuel left in my tank by kilometres travelled. If someone pinches fuel from me, I could end up stranded.

I got a great cap from the guys at BBM. Locks and is VERY secure..
I've searched their website but can't find a direct link to it. (They've just built a new website)
