Hey guys,
New to the site here but need to reach out to some fellow owners. I have an 83 V20 Fisherman CC and was getting her in the water last week and of course I left the cap on the gunwale after the fill up and its gone. I've tried replacement caps from west marine (1.5") and none fit. Does this really require a whole new stainless unit and install or does anyone have any ideas for a replacement cap. PM me if you have a scrap you could part with or reply. NEED HELP! Wanna get on the striper run soon!!! - JGBLAIR3 |

If you know the brand of cap, perko, etc, you might find one on ebay or a marine salvage yard. If it isn't stainless you really should upgrade. The old zamak/pot metal kind can break off and spill fuel into your bilge.

There's a fancy push-button stainless steel one under the gas dock at Hoffman's marina...

Thanks for the help guys. Probably going to do a full replacement unit. Upgrade to stainless.

I had to replace my whole thing as I could not find a cap to fit the original opening.
