Still trying here and seeping some gas. On my old cap, which I am pretty sure is an old stant G37, I made a rubber gasket to go over the paper gasket on the cap. Driving to work this morning and using my paper towels and coffee container, it looked like the leak was not coming from the vent, but the sealing circumference of the cap.
With the added thickness of the rubber gasket, I can't rotate the cap all the way around to the stop.
Do most people tighten the gas cap all the way until it sits on the stops, or just until it is snug?
Maybe I'm doing something simple and wrong
