TRD Engine Aluminium Racing Valve Oil Fual Cap Filler Cover
Recently I splashed out on a oil filler cap for a Toyota 86 just to give my engine bay a bit more bling.
I have herd that if you get a cap that is not air tight it will leak oil onto the engine. That makes sense, so has anyone had any experience with this type of mod. What I will make sure is the rubber gasket is big enough and is of the same as the original as I may expect issues. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/322139109...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT |

Thanks, yes this seems like the safest way to do it....I thought of taking the O-ring from the OEM part to the after market version. I am confident that the after market version shouldn't affect the oil quality.
