Jim78 Posted July 4, 2009 Report Posted July 4, 2009 Does anyone have a part number for a gas cap to fit a '78 Avanti?
theGman Posted July 4, 2009 Report Posted July 4, 2009 is that the screw in type or the old quarter turn type?
Jim78 Posted July 5, 2009 Author Report Posted July 5, 2009 is that the screw in type or the old quarter turn type? That would be the Screw in type. The FLAPS has a number of similar screw in types, but has no listing for the '78 Avanti. I know that the height of the cap is an issue so the gas door will close. The '78 has the lock that looks like it came from a desk drawer.
Ray K. Posted July 13, 2009 Report Posted July 13, 2009 Does anyone have a part number for a gas cap to fit a '78 Avanti? I bought a cap at my local Autozone last October for my '82. I had lost the original as the result of a hasty fill-up, so I had nothing but memory to go on. They let me take home the two caps that I reckoned were closest, and luckily one fit perfectly and did not interfere with the door. According to my receipt that is CST Fuel Cap 6817 (Autozone #004371). The other cap (which I returned) was CST Fuel Cap 6822 (Autozone #009595). Or it could be the other way around, but I'm 90% sure this is correct. Ray
