Is it just the standard large square flip cap ? Get one from another 86 or earlier rangie with the key as well. Nothing else will fit.
Saddle up tonto, its the not so loanrangie! . 98 TDI DISCO lightly modded with more to come.

Yeah its the standard large square flip cap and its crap, I keep losing petrol all the time when i am going up a hill, I cannot fill it all the way up have to fill it half way blah blah blah... finding other 86 range rover in the wreckers or anywhere is like finding a needle in the haystack..

Any other suggestion?..

sounds like a seal missing from filler.

O ring between body and filller.

Maybe your right, but I broke the metal catcher ages ago and have been using a very strong sticky tape to hold it shut :oops: and really need a new petrol cap or other ways of replacing it.

thanks

Fit a rear QTR panel from a later model rangie that moves the filler higher up the QTR panel.
