Oil filler cap gasket.

where did you buy the o ring gasket?

[blacksambo]

I got mine from the Isuzu dealer. Also, in response to Tone's reply about smoking; one of our '99's did have enough blow-by at the filler cap to noticeably smoke and by repalcing the filler cap o-ring it stopped.

i think ive got this problem too.. the ring on mine feels like plastic, not rubber, wonder if its possible to replace this at a local parts store

[tom4bren]

Advance Auto has replacement caps that come with a flat rubber washer. I didn't check about the gasket by itself.

The oil cap with a rubber gasket is easy to find at most any auto parts store for a few bucks. Look for one like this. It's larger and much easier to grip and turn.

Edit: etlsport provided the part # below and a search shows the company is Stant.

yep i just picked one of those up.. part number 11101 it was 6.99 I think, hopefully this will curb the oil consumption a tad

Does anyone know where I can order one of these? I have been to PepBoys, Napa, 2 Kragens and 2 Autozones with no luck.

Thanks,

That'd be nice. It seems that even if I put the stocker back on just tight enough to seal, it's still a PITA to remove after the engines' been warmed up a few times.

yep... i started keeping a set of pipe pliers in the vx to make sure i never had a situation where the filler cap wouldnt come off when I needed to top off the oil, havent had to take the new one off but it is bigger and has slightly better grips on it
