So I had bought a new cap from o-R auto parts a few weeks ago but I took it back this afternoon after modifing the old one. I was going to do it to the new one but couldn't figure out how to get it a part. The ring doesn't have the two small tangs on it holding it in. I didn't want to tear up the new one so I just took it back.

I'm going to try and find a cap like what NAPA has and see if I can modify it.

If this doesn't work I have a new sending unit on order and will install it with enough hose to run up into the passenger side cab wall and out through the floor to the frame. I may run it to a canister are just run it to the back of the truck.
