Post subject:  Gas Cap Rattle
For about a week now there has been a terrible rattle on the drivers side of my kj. After hours of analysis, i found the top of the gas cap is rattling. The cap still secures in place, but the top part that turns rattles. is there a way i can fix this so i do not have to buy a new gas cap?

Gas caps are not that much. I paid $17 or so for a mopar locking cap at the dealer.

this is a joke right?
my tires make more noise than you could ever make with a gas cap
heck my 6 month old makes more noise than a gas cap

Turn up the radio and pay attention to the road

Sorry if it sounds bad but I find the petty "my jeep is making noise" stuff very BMW-esque
sure the "my jeep banged and now wont go" is one thing until it comes out to be operator error
but some of it is just VERY petty

IT IS A JEEP
GET OVER THE NOISES

:lol: That going me rolling alittle.

Gap caps can be pretty dangerous. If thrown at a high velocity it could kill you. :shock:

Maybe you could coat it in something that is thick and nutty yet very satisfying? :wink:

I had a gas cap go on me awhile back but you would have never thought anything was wrong with it. Screwed on and secured fine, from what I could tell anyway but my engine light was on until I purchased a new cap. Simple fix. Could be your problem. Like Jeepjeepster said, caps are inexpensive.

are you sure you are screwing it on right?
put cap on then close door
sounds like you may have closed the door then tried to put the cap on
