fuel cap catch

Post by Parker3865 »

Hello, me again...
I am also refurbishing the fuel cap. Can anyone tell me if the front locking catch should have a spring? Picture below. Mine does not. My tank being painted so I can't fit it to see if it works without one.
Thanks.

I was rather hoping you were going to source bits or a replacement cap as his fuel cap catch doesn't. :?
