I've tried the Lyall. Unfortuately they still leak. Fred have you had good luck with the Billet ones? I think they all will leak, just some less than others.

My experience with my Turbosonic caps is they need to be tightened REAL tight. Just snug like normal and they leaked at the threads. Gotta tighten enough to get the o-ring to seal. Dry as a bone now.

Can you use the billet caps on the plastic tanks?
