140/early 240 fuel cap - the 90 degree turn kind

jamesinc

I am chasing a fuel cap for a 1977 244 DL, but oddly while one of my 1977 244 DLs uses the common screw cap for the tank, this 1977 244 DL uses the older-style cap found on 140s and I guess early 240s. It is displayed on the right in the below photo

Did you end up finding an original or another that works? I'm looking for one as well.

thepacman I did eventually find an original. There is a fancy one you can buy new: https://www.skandix.de/en/spare-parts/body/body-parts/fuel-tank-filling/cap-fuel-tank/1000928/

Wow. Fancy one at a fancy price. Very nice though. Thanks for your help.

The link is to a 122 cap.

I think it's right? The 122 cap I think is this other pentagon https://www.skandix.de/en/spare-parts/body/body-parts/fuel-tank-filling/cap-fuel-tank/1022117/
