Hello

I lost my oil filler cap this evening frown

I should be able to get one from Leven next week..

Is there something I can use in the meantime?

I have some spare heat shield and stainless steel cable ties in the garage somewhere.

Would it be ok to cover it over and tie it down for a day out?

Is there something else that would fit?

Or are there pressure issues?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Best wishes

GrahamN lost his on a track day at Brands. Pretty sure we used an emergency plastic one from a petrol station and cable ties as a get you home solution.

I managed to find a temporary solution by trimming an old gearbox mount..
