Review on πŸ”’ Enhanced Fuel Cap: Efficient and Easy-to-Use Solution by Matthew Aiono

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Exact fit when instructions are followed

OEM precision fit when you (1) know your vehicle's specific application and (2) follow the installation instructions. Several reviewers have incorrectly stated that part of the cap is missing (wrong) or cannot be screwed into the fuel filler neck (wrong again). FC974 is not a screw cap; Of course, it doesn't screw into the threaded pipe of the fuel tank. The problem is not with Revain or their installation information. In fact, this cover will fit any vehicle listed in the compatibility information. Then why isn't it suitable for your particular car, you ask? Their explanation is as follows: Ford Motor Company/Motorcraft, in their infinite wisdom, offered multiple gas tank and gas cap options on the same vehicle platform (Aviator, Explorer, Mountaineer) and these options were often found in the same model year. . Hence, this leads to the frustrating confusion of owning our beloved Ford vehicles. If your vehicle does not require a Ford specific part number XU5A-9030-NB or XU5Z-9030-NA then this cover (FC974) will not work for your application. To be absolutely sure, it is best to enter your vehicle identification number (VIN) on the Fordparts website. This is Motorcraft's official website and will provide an exact match based on your VIN. You can then go back and buy the 'right' part from Revain and enjoy low prices and fast shipping! I have purchased three of these baseball caps with no fitting issues. Hope that helps.
