Review on πŸ”’ Gates 31637 Fuel Tank Cap: The Best OE Equivalent Solution by Tyrone Lee

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Almost identical to the original

Bought for a 2002 Ford Focus SE. There is a slight difference in the lettering on the front, but otherwise it is visually identical. Not sure if the internals are the same or not, but it worked like a charm. As one seller noted, it can be attached to your car by a cord, but to do this you need to take a screwdriver and pull out the clips around the perimeter. You have to be careful with this because once you take it off all the innards are just loose there (there are check valves, gaskets and more inside the gas cap so you don't want to mess things up). Then you have to do the same with what you care about and then it just snaps into place. Let's see how long this lasts. Until the check engine light comes on.

Pros
  • Good value for money
Cons
  • weak
