40c Fuel cap

Just received an original type high fuel cap for my crawler. It won't fit down through the hole in the hood to go on the tank. My tank might be off a Model M. Would that make a differnce? I was thinking the 40 tank might have a taller neck to come up through the hood so the cap would go on.

See if your tank is bent in a little, the neck should be above the hood enough to get the cap on.

Thanks Lavoy. I'll check it out. Maybe I should use rubber grommets to lift the tank a bit. I see them in the M parts book but not in the 40 parts book. Were they used on the 40 as well?

Normally don't see them on 40's. I have had a couple tanks that have had a branch or something fall on them and push the neck down so it is hard to get a cap on.
