casting is not drilled.

Hello friends,=C2=A0=C2=A0 =C2=A0If you've followed any of the work on my '=
75 US specification TR6 you will know that the following question is probab=
ly irrelevant...but I ask anyway, for your sage advice:
When reinstalling the fuel filler cap, which is the correct orientation? Hi=
nge side toward the front. Or rear? Or to one side or another?
=C2=A0 =C2=A0Thanks in advance of your reply.
