gas cap restore

[TrailerRider]

Is it possible to restore one of the old chrome gas caps from the 110 hondas? Ours is nor working good anymore. I would like to keep the orignal cap if possible.

look for a new one, it would be easier. I bet you can get a new rubber gasket for it still. is it clogged up with rust - or does it have a vent?

what is "not working" about it?

it's the type where you turn the switch on top to "On" or "Off". Hard to start trike. remove cap and it starts right up. You have to pump the throttle a bunch to get it to start. It just starts and dies for a second or 2. Remove the cap and it fires and idles great. Runs like a champ :) 90's are fun to ride :)

check the vent that goes thru it. It is probably clogged with a piece of rust. do you have an air compressor? PB Blaster?

No air compressor but I can get some PB Blaster. Thanks.
