And you can just about count on those 7IO caps leaking.

Mine leaked due to it not fitting tight enough. I just unscrewed the reaining clip from the bottom and chuked the cap in the lathe and machined about .125" off of it. After I put it back together, the cap fit tighter and didnt leak. I have a lathe in my garage but most of you dont so expect to spend $ to get it to work properly.

Cliff notes: $14 to purchase oil cap, $20 for machine work, $34 total for a $3 oil cap.
 
what if you buy another gasket and put it overtop the existing gasket? that should make it fit tight enough, no?
 
Alright, I don't even run a spark plug cover on my 4G63. But a picture of this Ralliart plug cover was in the gallery and it actually doesn't look half bad. Is this a real Ralliart piece? (it looks fairly well made) and where can I get one? :cool:
 
I think it is, I almost got one on ebay that was like that.
It was off of a GVR4 rallyart, it had slats in it like a grill, and annodized black with "rally art" on it like that.
I havent seen that one before though,
 
Hey guys,

I'm just wondering if some of you can point me in the right direction towards a nice looking spark plug cover.

I've seen that JM Fabrications have one, and Buschur Racing's one isn't too bad, but what else is out there?

Thanks,

Mat :)
 
Hey everyone. i been lookign around and havent found the answer i'm seeking. I'm trying to find out if anyone sells custom spark plug covers that allow you to tell them what you would like it to say on the cover. I found some nice covers but none that the shop will do writing on it for you. So if anyone knows wher ei can get it please let me know! I'm looking to purchase roughly 10 of them.

thanks
john
 
I've seen some on Ebay. They're polished metal with airbrush work. I believe in the details it said to email the guy about custom work on it.

Order a blank one and send it off to bonehead performance, they do custom engraving and powdercoating.

I tried that and it still leaked a bit. Here is my spark plug cover

That doesn't look that bad you can paint it w/e color you want or maybe throw a turbo>na sticker on it and call it a day.
