George said the OEMs weeped on the 610s. Aluminum with a slightly different material for the o-ring and more thread depth (I think). the logo on the head stands up enough to get a better grip than the OEM. One for 610s and one for the rest. I'll pull it off and post a pic of it later but here it is on the bike. http://gallery.me.com/glangston1#100024
It sure does! I fixed my leaky oil filler cap by going down to the locl bearing house and asking for an o-ring. They gave me two of `em for free; no more weep. WoodsChick
Mine has never leaked but I think I might have to add another of Georges works of art to my bike (already have few).
Yeah, I'm kind of trying to justify buying one, as well. I don't need it, but it looks cool WoodsChick
Husky bling wohoooooo George that is beautiful ! (Oh thank god coffee; finally I can put a thumb up smiley at the end of my posts…) So George that’s a defintly
Oh yeah, that is a much better photo. It looked as though there was nothing to grab onto in the first photo. It looks like a much better design than stock, as well. There is too much room in the stock cap, and the one o-ring just wasn't cutting it. WoodsChick
WoodsChick, I did the same fix with my cap, but I actually paid $0.45 for mine LOL! Oh well, the problem is solved, and I probably saved $40-50 also.
Oh, Dude! You got ripped off I thought I was going to need one for the oil drain plug, too, til it was discovered that the crush washer was in the pan with all the old oil, and my 610 was already buttoned up with fresh oil Rather than dump the fresh oil, I just kept a can of brakleen nearby til it was time for another oil change WoodsChick
mine leaks like crazy. ive put 10 o-rings on..... heck i was watching it like a hawk after the hurricane. it weeps ALOT
Warning - dumb question coming. Where can I get the up-tite oil filler cap? Website? Phone number? Thanks, Y
Got mine a couple of months ago. It's expensive, it looks good, and it does not leak. My stock plastic one weeped oil all the time. Messy.
Guys- If you have ANY questions...simply call the number above. Ya know, like how it used to be before computers et al? The dood's a Husky Encyclopedia.
Any harm in asking how much from a few people that have already bought one though? I haven't had a few minutes to call during reasonable phone hours.
