[xj] Fuel Drain Access Cover

Paul Aslanian <@Paul_Aslanian>

Dear All,

Any further effort on securing a replacement for the original black plastic
fuel tank drain valve access hole cover?? I would like to buy a few to
salt away for the future.

Thanks,
Paul J. Aslanian

I found a perfect replacement from Grainger ( Hole Plug, Hole Diameter 2 1/2", Black. Item 1ELY4) It is a perfect fit and has tension snaps along the inside ring for easy removal. It snaps right in and fits flush with the body panel. The only disadvantage is you have to buy a pkg of 25 for $12.59. I now have 23 spares. If anyone would like to receive some, just make a donation to Jag Lovers and I will mail two to you for free. :wink:
