    I need a 2 1/4" non vented gas cap and wouldnt you know it cannot find one at any of the local retailers here. Can anyone suggest a make or model that used a 2 1/4" non vented cap so I can expand my search? Thanks

    I've had trouble finding one online too! Just a simple chrome cap. Our buddy Harry here says he knows where to get them. I'll ask him.

    I found a 2 1/4" cap but it was vented so I just took the cap apart and mig welded up the 4 vent holes, works great.
