Fuel Cap Dust Lip Chafing Fuel Tank Surface – Boxer Models
Information: To prevent fuel tank’s painted surface from being rubbed
or chafed by the Dust Seal (Fig. 1), an 0-Ring 44 x
4 mm (Part No. 11 42 1 337 098) can be fitted between
the sealing surfaces as shown in Fig. 2.
The 0-Ring will restrict compression of the fuel cap
seal, raising the overall cap height when tightened,
thereby preventing the Dust Seal from rubbing against
the painted surface.
Very truly yours,
