Yeah - When you search for 62818-08A you get a list of part numbers, none of which are 62818-08A!!

OK - Problem solved!

I got the ***** and went out to have a look what the problem was... and it was that the fuel cap was too long and hitting the bottom of the spout. So...

One dremel later and BINGO! its in! It fits perfectly and I shook the crap out of it to test for leaks - NO PROBS!!!

HAPPYYYYYYY!!
