I (like many others) had issues with the lock on the original fuel cap on my Rippa R18 mini excavator. Created this replacement fuel cap without a lock since I had to break off the original fuel cap, destroying it in the processes.

Don't use PLA. Print using a filament that is resistant to diesel and chemicals, for example PETG.

For some extra strength I used these settings in Orca:

  • 0.12mm layer height

  • Random seam position

  • 4 Wall loops

  • Alternate extra wall: yes

  • Sparse infill density 25%

Additionally I printed at 45 degree angle for extra strength, so threads are not pulled apart as easily.

Thread part of shaft created with Big Pickle LLM in Opencode, then rest of model created manually by me in Blender.
