The cap thing is cool but over time ur gonna have to replace constantly. Is the billet one like for the cummins an interest to anyone? The one on eBay will not work upon further inspection.

Ah Garetth99, I'll think you'll find that alloy one will cure roids! It's a but plug!

All the MY14 GC's are capless from what I understand. As long as your seal is good there shouldn't be an issue. If you find dust is getting past the seal then you may have a problem over time.

May cause roids haha. Was referring to the one on the eBay link he sent me. Just curious. I do machining and if there is an interest in it I may try and whip one out and see how it goes.

Yeah I cannot even begin to comprehend the value in NOT having a cap. Are they suggesting most WK2 owners are not smart enough to undo a gas cap .Seriously am I missing something.
