I noticed this cool Cobra-style fuel tank cap in a YouTube video by Morgan Plus Four in the USA. Has anyone ever fitted this to a Plus Four ?  : ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/Kk6Bq9ZB/Bouchon-essence.jpg)

Ruut has had one fitted by his dealer. Williams have them (or similar) advertised on their web pages: Le Mans style filler capMMC will also fit one if you ask them nicely, so probably any Morgan dealer will help out ... at a price.

MMC always used to use https://shop.newton-equipment.com/ It's probably in there for a fraction of the price

I bought it at Newton. However, the lower ring is only available from a Morgan dealer. The number for the ring is REV. A. FLANGE 1143-6M M05 OD 126.0 X 27.OH CF350 ![[Linked Image]](https://tm-img.com/images/2024/06/10/IMG_3941.jpeg)

They are not cheap, it's more than the cap alone, it's a whole "structure" underneath as you can see, and labour intensive to install. The US spec PlusFours have another fuel system with plastic fuel tanks instead of the metal ones on the UK and Continental PlusFours. The US filler caps differ from the "Pinnacle" cap, as they are larger. I don't know if the fit UK cars. I must say that I never did regret my conversion, I think it's a beautiful, not too large, LeMans style cap and works like a treat.😍

Your filler cap is mounted on top of the old one, which you made lockable. Mine is a complete replacement, also because I struggled with the original cap!

I ordered this Plus Four. However, I really don't like the standard fuel cap; it's the same one as on my Super 3, and I find it too modern  : ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/CMspGyRG/IMG-4991-min-scaled.jpg)

I don't like them either. My MY late 2022 PlusFour had the partially plastic inner work, which caused problems while opening it, especially if it stood in the sun for a longer time, so the plastic expanded more than the metal. And the plastic became rough due to repeatedly manipulating the cap. I once needed the AA to open it and because I was on holiday when that happened a made a detour to MorganPark Hamburg, who knew the problem and we so kind to solve it for a great deal by sanding the edges from the plastic. The later variants have a complete metal innerwork, but, as I have tried, don't operate nicely either. So I ddid choose for a complete replacement by the Pinnacle Cap, if it's for the looks, you can choose for the solution by Clemens, where the LeMans cap is mounted over the existing one.
