|
|
Hi there,
On the new Jackal 50R that I just purchased, the fuel cap fits very tightly... hard to screw on, and is not cross threaded. Fuel still leaks out from the cap as it sploshes around inside.
Is there any quick fix for this? A rubber seal/gasket maybe?
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply funnelhead... but I'm not quite following you.
Also, don't want to do anything like that while it's still under warranty.
Anyone from Jackal got any ideas? I e-mailed Barton over a week ago with no response.

One last bump just for the heck of it.
I assumed the Jackal folks actually read these... I'll give it a week and then try to contact Barton again.
