Replacement oil filler cap or gasket source?

[Jack Black]

The oil filler cap gasket on my '87 GN is falling apart.

I called a local Buick dealer, and the parts man said neither the filler cap (with gasket) nor the gasket alone are still stocked.

Does anyone know a source for either, or alternatively, a way to use some sort of sealer to function as a gasket?

Thanks

Jack

You can get them on evilbay for about $5.

Thanks. What do I search for? Gasket for '87 GN oil filler cap or gasket for '87 Buick Regal oil filler cap? I don't know if they are different with the different valve covers.

Here's a link to the guy that has the parts. This is the washer that goes in between the gasket and the tube.

Didn't know that Glen. Now that I do I'm sorry about posting the evilbay link. Get it from Glen and you can't go wrong. Price is even cheaper than the other guy.:biggrin:

I got mine from Kirban prior to becoming a member on this board. It's larger & will improve pressure issues inside the motor.

Almost all the supporting vendors on this board have the larger fill tubes & caps.

Thanks guys. I got the gasket. Now this:

Do you know a source for body parts? I need a right headlight bezel and side-marker lamp for my '87 GN (perhaps other related parts).

I am assuming that these parts have also been discontinued by GM.

Thanks.
