Following up, thanks to the tank manufacturer (Kraco in Milwaukee) I found just what I needed at Claire's Marine Outfitters in Ft. Lauderdale. Seems the closure hasn't changed in 25 years, and they still stock both the covers and the O-rings. Kracor gets 'em from Beckson, so you may have gone through more middlemen than you needed to. Now a further question. The covers, it seems, have to be driven home to seal the O-rings by using a hammer and a wooden block against some little plastic "ears" sticking out from the cover. Ears???? Hammers???? You have to talking about a different inspection cover cap than any I've ever seen...'cuz the only ones I know of are round...the o-ring easily slips over the threads to go around it under the flange...and all you have to do to seal the cap is thread it in to the opening. Would you email me a photo of your inspection port and the replacement cap you bought? peg(dot)hall(at)sbcglobal(dot)net. 'Cuz I can't even begin to visual what you're talking about...much less tell you how to install it. -- Peggie ---------- Peggie Hall Specializing in marine sanitation since 1987 Author "Get Rid of Boat Odors - A Guide To Marine Sanitation Systems and Other Sources of Aggravation and Odor" http://www.seaworthy.com/store/custo...0&cat=6&page=1 http://shop.sailboatowners.com/books...ku=90&cat=1304 |
