Hi all

I have recently put a new (landrover) locking filler cap on my 300tdi, there
is now a serious vacuum when i remove the filler to fill up with fuel,
should this be? and is this effecting performance?

Can't remember which or whiat the part numbers are but there are caps with
and caps without breather holes...
I am guessing you have got without and could do with one with a hole...
Drill a tiny hole in the cap??
