Thats a thought, the caps did not have washers when I bought the caar, and
the replacements didn't come with, and I don't have a catalog handy but I
don't recall that there is a washer but memory could be failing. (my
teenage daaughter swears I have premature alzheimers) But anyway I will
check that out...

Just a shot in the dark -- are the washers missing from the filler caps?
They
probably cause enough friction between the caps and air chambers to keep the
caps from turning, along with some vibration damping, and the usual sealing
function.
