Found Thank You
 

 

 

Hello. I took the ‘26 DB out yesterday and got tired of spilling gas every bump I hit. (Doesn’t help that they are repaving the roads in my neighborhood)  I just called Myers and ROMAR and they don’t have it. So does anyone have this cap?

This cap and the touring car top saddles are the hardest parts to find for 1924-1925 DB's

I think part of the problem is you are missing the inner splash guard. I would clean the cap really well and solder one in. It will need a vent hole in it, but offset from the center. If that is the cap you are using, looks like a lot of rust flakes that can drop into the tank on it now.

Thanks for the advice. The picture is not my cap. I found the photo in another discussion on the topic from years ago.

I was sorta thinking that was the case, but posted the info anyway. I too am needing a gas cap for my 20. I called Myers about one, they have one but I am not ready to shell out $45 plus shipping right now.

Thanks everyone. Found. George at ROMAR found one for me.
