I lost my oil cap. What should I do? I'm going on a trip to Irvine tonight. How long can I go with duct tape or something in place of the cap?

Probably a dumb question, just wanna maker sure seeing as how I'm going on a 1hr to 1 1/2 hr driving trip.

 

Wont hurt to put a peace of duct tape over it temporarily.

 

Ok, thank you, sabre.

 

Buy a new one.

 

I wouldn't drive my car w/o one, except to the nearest parts store.

 

would I find a universal fitting gas cap or a brand fitting cap at a local auto store?

 

Most local parts stores should have them. I think most of them are the same.

 

Gas Cap?

 

Is that the 710 cap???
