Oil cap gasket
Looked through this forum and technical manuals. I can find the oil filler cap but not the gasket. Anyone know the part number or where to buy?
Re: Oil cap gasket
The part number is: MS35769-18. It is in TM 9-2320-218-2O. You can also make a gasket yourself.

Re: Oil cap gasket
Glcaines,
That’s the part number for the crush gaskets on the transmission and differentials. It should be a rubber gasket right??

Re: Oil cap gasket
You are correct. I screwed up. I would recommend making one yourself.

Re: Oil cap gasket
The gasket "should" come already on a new cap.

Re: Oil cap gasket
I didn't want to buy a 30 year old cap and gasket so I found a great alternative. Continental aircraft engine oil cap gasket, part number 533355, fits well. It's a little sloppy on the center post but seals well and keeps the cap tight. They sell for $4.00-$5.00 at most online parts houses. Hope this helps others.
Re: Oil cap gasket
That's also a standard-sized cap.
You might just as easily gone and gotten a standard cap (like a Dorman product) and then transfer the gasket over. I would encourage everyone to avoid getting too far down in the weeds when it comes to stuff like this. It just makes for a bigger headache than it really ought to be.
A properly sized gasket is a properly sized gasket. End of story.
Cheers,
TJ

Dang,
I thought this forum was for people with similar interests in vehicles trying to help each other out. I'll keep my opinions and experiences to myself from now on. Bye.

Re: Oil cap gasket
We DID try to help you, Here is a standard oil fill cap you could have used as is for only a couple bucks. Paint it OD and nobody would know the difference. Or you could have bought the original cap that would have worked just fine. We appreciate when someone comes up with out of the box solutions but those solutions need to fit correctly.
