Who sells tanks that are not made like milk cartons? Who sells blue caps that actually work in both directions like the originals? Can I still go to the dealer and get these items or are they NLA. At this point I don't care how much either of these parts cost, I just want them to work. I don't want a stainless steel tank because a) they don't make one to fit the upgraded diesel hoses, and b) seeing the reaction of the level inside the clear plastic tank in response to rpm, observing bubbles, etc. is an important diagnostic feature I don't want to lose.
