Still need filler reducer
I still havnt been able to find a reducer suitable for fuel that i can use to join my 51mm filler cap and my 45mm tank.
Someone suggested using a coolant reducer which i did only to be told that it needed to be fuel resistant 
Does anyone know where i can find one?
Failing that, has anyone got a 45mm filler cap (preferable lockable) i can buy?
How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

why lockable?? The days of nicking fuel are gone are they not? Its not like the car is going to be parked outside overnight is it?

how about this?
Bit of 50mm fuel hose should be able to be persuaded over your 51mm filler

I think that's because modern production cars have anti-syphon gubbins fitted.
