Leaking gas cap

2372ighost · 01-22-2020, 10:51 PM

I know this has been addressed, but I can’t find the fix.
2018 Brozz. When I fill with enough gas to touch the bottom of the cap assembly, it leaks when on the side stand. Is this normal? Are you not able to fill to the top and ride?
Thanks

Curious to know this as well...my Hawk does the same thing and will leak some while transporting on the back of my truck. My wife's does not seem to have this issue.

Others here have posted modifications to the original cap (cutting off part of the venting chamber) that is said to have worked.....
I went with an OEM Honda gas cap part number 17620-460-067 available from Ebay, or any of the online Honda parts stores,....that definitely fixes the problem.

Don’t fill so high is a fix

Lol, that’s what I’ve been doing. Most tanks have a ullage line to compensate for expansion.
