How do you put the gas cap back together? (Read 107 times)

Classic650 YaBB Newbies Offline SuzukiSavage.com Rocks! Posts: 36 NH Gender:	How do you put the gas cap back together? 07/02/11 at 13:42:17 I can't figure out how everything lines up to make the lock disengage. I have the springs & latches together, but once I screw the cover down, it doesn't line up properly. Any help would be great. Thank you

BTW, that link for fix the gas cap leak didn't get into the details of piecing it back together.

Putting it back is usually opposite order of taking it apart. I take extra care when messing with something I don't know anything about.

I knew that, but at least there was a pic or two. Wink

Why did it jam up? Is it gonna do it again? Is taking it apart & putting it back together gonna fix it? Why even make it work with a key? Someone gonna steal all 1.5 gallons of gas? LOL,, Id get a cap that just goes on like a radiator cap if I could find one. Push & twist,, presto,, gas cap.. or gut the lock & use a small screwdriver.
I shimmed mine so it sealed better,, got tired of seein gas drizzle,,

IMHO the two are not related. Adults do stuff like that. The same kind of guy that will %iss in your helmet while it's locked to your bike.
