Good To Know
Q: Will this cap work on my loader if the fuel neck is slightly different?A: The cap is intended for the listed wheel loader models, but variations in production batches can affect fit, so verify the diameter and thread type before ordering.
Q: Can I use this cap on a grader or truck with the same tank size?A: This cap is specifically fit for Caterpillar wheel loaders listed, and using it on other equipment may not guarantee a proper seal.
Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
