Subject: [Healeys] Gas cap parts now in tank
=20
Yesterday when I removed the gas cap preparatory to filling the tank the =
cap came apart and both the spring and inner pressure plate fell into =
the tank.
Since the tank is steel I am doubtful that I would be successful in =
extricating the parts by fishing about with a long magnetic wand down =
the filler neck.
Before removing the tank from the car and shaking it to get the parts =
out I thought I would ask for opinions on whether this is necessary. =20
Given that the two pieces are made of steel what is the worst that could =
happen?=20
