Fuel cap anatomy help
Yesterday at 17:26:22
 

Fuel cap has been leaking so my first step was to flip over the existing gasket and get some measurements while it was out. I really thought I was being careful, but when I went to pick up the internal cover for the locking mechanism to reassemble, a spring and one of the retractable latch pins had dislodged. And an interesting washer with a small hole that doesn't appear to align perfectly with anything, no matter how it's positioned.

Man, there's a lot of parts in there!

I worked with it a bit, trial and error, and I think I have it back together correctly, but would really like to be sure.

Anyone have detailed pics of how these things are assembled?

2 different caps , both fit tight ,one won’t fit the other just a tad bigger. It may be a California only cap. One breathes better than the other. Never force it in cause it’s almost impossible to remove. It’s been awhile , I remember replacing the seal and changing something from old cap to new cap. After that the bike ran better at WOT , and using the deep well nut on the float bowl gave a very linear pull off of idle to WOT. For not having a bigger cam she really gets with it making power, might be my best jetting yet. I love Big singles.
