Now I have my suspension sorted, I can push the fuel out the filler neck. So I'm getting me one of these:

Which I have on my 1987 FHC 350i. No affiliation with the seller, just thought you guys 'n grrrrls might wanna know.

Bluddy 'ell mate. Bit posh innit - £45!!!

The standard TVR cap is crap. But of course I bought one. Should have got it coeked instead!

Yeah, £45 for petrol cap is taking the Pi** but £1.99 including P&P for the cork thingy to fix mine was excellent value! The jiffy bag they sent in must have cost them 50p !
Can stil smell a bit of fuel on hard corning, but I don;t have the river running down the side of the car anymore!
