Gas Gas Fuel Cap.

Just picked up a used 2011 250 txt pro. The rubber o-ring that seals the fuel cap on just falls out after every refueling. i'm wondering if the original owner refitted a improper size o-ring.  Could anyone measure their oring so i can reference a proper fitting one,The gas gas mirco-fiche only lists the entire cap.

Clean both the O ring and the cap off and smear a tiny bit of Tiger Seal (or similar product) on the O ring on the upper edge which sits in the cap, this should hold it in place.

I can take a look tommorow. Is 2011 the same as 2009 and 2008?

Looks a little different there Bond. Although i almost guarantee gas gas did not change the oring. Looks as if they only changed the little screw tab

Picture of said fuel cap for reference.
