Well Eric has found a part number for the offending piece. 1vj-21761-00. But I can't seem to find a place that sells them, so it looks like it might be a bodge job to keep it running and get and get one from Oli if he can get a 2nd hand one. Thanks again for the help Eric!!! and Oli too for the offer to get one and send it over. Your all legends on here you guys.

But this is for the type that goes into the hole (thread inside) he needs the one that is like a nut (thread on outside).

Does that makes sense? like the lid of plastic bottle, can you see the thread on the outside of the tank.

Hello there!

A Hungarian Tenere Owners Club member made a few out of aluminum.

Anyone interested?
