041av fuel cap parts?

[DucTruckin379]

Does anybody know where I can get the orange silicone diaphragm that's in the fuel cap? It's not listed in the IPL, and it's the only thing wrong with this cap (is got a split in it). I'd rather not put an AM cap on it if I can help it, but as of now, it leaks just barely when on it's side.

If you can get a measurement of the diameter of it I have a few random Stihl flappers floating around, maybe one of them would fit.

Thanks @Woodslasher ! I'll get some measurements tonight when I get home.

It looks like it's right at 5/8" (actually .615) in diameter, and has this kind of tail on it. The above measurement is what I got on the silicone, not the white plastic (the white plastic is .639 where it presses into the black cap, middle step). I accidentally finished it off trying to get it out.

Perfect, I just brought all my saw boxes back home, so I'll see if I've got a match here shortly.

Not sure if this helps or not..? I think I have one somewhere, because I brought 2 when I was replacing mine. Just incase I fugged one up installing it and thus saving on time and postage

I could be wrong, but isn’t that thing in some fuel tanks.. but it maybe a different size & somtimes stihl change part #
Part 22 in the ipl of the 026

No charge, I stripped it off of a busted 066 tank and I’m never gonna use it. Just pm me an address and I’ll get it sent your way.

That flapper hit the mail today so it's all up to the folks at USPS now.

That's awesome, thank you!

Dad has an 041 farm boss. LOUD and HEAVY but, can sit for long periods of time and a couple rips on the cord and she's running. Good old saw and a fun saw to run every once in a while (feels nostalgic) plus the lack of a chain brake makes you really feel like a man haha. A nice saw to hand to your buddy when his saw stops running... I've got an 031av on the bench right now. Tinkered with it a bit yesterday. Rip cord was broken, fixed that and now on to a no spark issue.
