What is wrong with what you have?  Some people have OH'd some worn ones in the past.

And of course they are available from the MSC at unusual prices...

Best regards,

Thanks. The threaded part is rusted up and I wanted to replace seals and was afraid it would break off when I try to unscrew it. Didn't think you could just get the threaded shaft.

There's one on eBay right now.  It doesn't look pretty but you could probably strip and paint it.

Thanks, for link to eBay.  You are right it looks a little rough also looks like they painted it. (Not well)

The good news is that you probably can't make it look much worse.

I bet if you removed the cotter pin and the castle nut the rest would come out and clean up nicely.

Here's a good source for the longest lasting O-rings for these fuel caps : https://www.beechtalk.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=130666

If the OP doesn't want your 2 fuel caps I would be interested in them. Mine are in nice condition they  just have locks installed by PO, Or original owner. I wouldn't trust them not to leak in the rain
