Hi,



Has anyone had the misfortune to lose the filler cap off their Rotax oil

tank and if so what sort of damage (£££ wise)  are we looking at.



 	  Quote: 	
		  From Rotax I am guessing there won't be a lot of change out of £50. I

suspect it is probably a standard industrial component that can be sourced
	


elsewhere at a reasonable price. The question is where.



Does anyone have the filler spout / cap dimension - might be worth looking

on ebay.



Thanks,



Carl Pattinson

PS: I DIDN’T LOSE IT !!!!

Carl,



I've not had the ill fortune to lose the filler cap but I located a price from the 2011 Lockwood Price List, page 80, about 2/3 down the page:



974 647 Oil Tank Cover, without Venting -- US$30.65



You can contact Lockwood at 1-800-LA-ROTAX or e-mail info(at)lockwood.aero



Hope this helps...

Well, not as expensive as I had expected - about £20 (which is reasonable

for Rotax).



Might be an idea to attach a short chain to the cap to prevent a repetition.



Thanks to those who responded.



Regards,

Carl
