Gasket appears stretched and maybe broken, and there appears to be rust or some other dirty looking material on the receiver. Maybe cleaning it would make a cap fit better, but perhaps it needs replaced. Or maybe I don't know what I'm talking about. I've never known of one needing replacing, on a Vanagon or any other vehicle. David McNeely |
