My wife managed to lose and run over the gas filler cap (don't ask me).I've got an older model and I can't find a replacement from the manufacturer. I closed it ot off with aluminum foil for now in hopes that all the gas doesn't evaporate, but i need a longer term solution.
>>2798663thats incredibly dumb or careless. Or both.Surely its all about the same though. Maybe try a big piece of cork that you stuff into the hole.
>>2798663>I can't find a replacement from the manufacturer.you aren't trying.I can go down to ace hardware and find gas caps for lawn equipment from the 60's.ebayamazongoogleyou aren't even trying.
>>2798765Ok, I'll look some more.
>>2798765^This. Ebay has the best photos.
>>2798663most gas caps for mowers from the same brand motors (usually Briggs & Stratton or Honda) are the same sizehttps://www.homedepot.com/p/Briggs-Stratton-Fuel-Cap-for-Tier-III-Engines-450-725-E-and-EX-Series-Vertical-Shaft-Engines-5436/203644125
>>2798663if you have calipers you can just measure the size before you buy anything at the store
>>2798798This. The gas caps don’t change much at all. Google it until you find a Briggs mower with the same general configuration on engine parts and it’s very likely the same cap. Hell, Ace Hardware will probably have one for a Briggs engine unless it’s ancient.
OP faggot…lets see a picture of the motor Sad bait right here>>2798799Eye roll…dumbass
Just say what engine it is dick lips
Just use an appropriately sized cork cap
Go where you bought that one and tell them the cap was missing out of the box when you were putting it togetherOr just steal one off a display model
>>2798837stop being black
I never realized just how stupid you ppl are
>>2798860The people asking for advice or the Bob Villa larper's confidently giving bad advice?
>>2798836He can microwave a cork cap to expend it to the right size
>>2798663Have her post tits or gtfo.
>>2798804Sorry had to pull a double shift on mothers day. im a managerHere is the old girl prior to the cap getting mashed.Btw i have not found one at aceI appreciate you guys
>>2798936That is a maytag 1922 mower model 14ksVery rare and valuable
>>2798936the jew fears the antique mower enthusiast
>>2798936that's the most common cap available in almost any place that sells mower parts.
>>2798936measure the outside edge of where the gas cap goes, not the threads though.
>>2798936locate the model number on the mower, it should be stamped somewhere on the cover the pull starter is attached to. post the numbers.
>>2798936Use the cap off a large can of PVC cement
No im sorry it isnt common at all.My old one is metal everything is plastic nowI measured but the threads cross wrongIm sorry I thought maybe somebody here could save me. Thanks for trying fellasMy wife is in the dog house. This mower was my dads
>>2798968needs a hole and a special gasket.
>>2798969you give up WAY too fast.it is probably one of these.https://www.ebay.com/itm/315309182511https://www.ebay.com/itm/164637313789
Im signing off gang as my wife is crying as well she should be. Im too upset to see the tire damage She ruined Mother’s Day
Update: cant sleep staying at my sisters house.Huge fight, police all over a gas cap. My wife blew her top and I ended up punching the wall. Never get married friends. All she had to do was apologize
>>2798936Impressive
>>2798970So drill a hole and buy a sheet of gasoline-resistant gasket material
>>2798663your wife is a dumb bitch, I hope you slapped her into next week. also why is she messing with the mower, her place is in the kitchen or laundry room or bedroom. tell her to stay in her place and dont touch your shit every againI swear men are such pussies nowadays
>>2799367>your wife...Stopped reading there.
>>2799367dude chill nothing OP said through the entire thread happened.
>>2799386MURACIDTIC
>>2798718>thats incredibly dumb or careless. Or both.>Surely its all about the same though. Maybe try a big piece of cork that you stuff into the hole.Is that for his wife or his lawnmower?
>>2798969Your wife is retarded.> but it doesn't have a holeMake one.> but it doesn't have a gasketsheet of cork, cut one.
Also, there's nothing worse than women for abusing lawn equipment. Either they can't get it to run (gas) or they use it to abuse the hell out of it and everything else (electric).NEVER loan your tools to a woman unless she wears flannel and looks like a frumpy trucker.You had a special bond w your grandpappy, and now you broke it.
>>2798936I know where you can find a cap OP. If that's really your mower and not a pic from the internet, then the cap can be located as indicated. You are welcome, nice bait.
>>2800393The thread is bait limp dick
