So i'm in the T-Bucket cruising down the freeway and i notice what looks like a fine mist of oil on my windshield. I'm thinking this ain't so good. So i hit the next off ramp, pull into a parking lot, jump out and immediately notice the oil filler tube cap has vibrated almost completely off (Edelbrock Performer EPS intake with the stock Edelbrock cap). So i shoved it back on and drove on home (about 5 miles). By the time i got home it had almost vibrated off again. I grabbed the cap off of another new in the box EPS intake i had ordered a few days ago and tried the cap on the T-Bucket. It fits a little better but i can tell after a few freeway miles i'll probably have an oil soaked windshield. Is their some kind of secret to making those things fit? Throw them away and buy something else? Duct tape? A big fucking hammer?
If it has a rubber gasket,Try a thicker one. Or if it a 1/4 turn cap,Try tweaking the ears so that it fits tighter.
