dismart Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 The cap on my diesel heater fuel tank has cracked and I am having a problem finding a replacement. It is for an ebersparcher blue tank(dometic) with an internal diameter of the cap thread of 46mm. Has anyone found a source for these. Thanks.

TonyH Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 Hi, Can I suggest you google.... dieselheat they are in Hobart. Graham Yost is the guy to contact there. A more knowledgeable person re diesel heating would be hard to find, and he can source any part or service requirements you need. Graham has helped me out a couple of times...... he gets my 'tick' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 Tony, Val tells me that Graham Yost was unable to help. He wanted to assist but doesn't have those caps any longer. So Val is getting Kedron to mail him the current unit and hope it fits. Kedron could not have been more helpful - as usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nev and Penny Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 When my fuel tank cracked ( 3 years old ) around the fitting hole , I thought this was a design fault . I went to Dometic at Brendale with proof of purchase ( caravan purchase details receipt ) and they gave me the updated model tank . They said they had problems with the caps as well .

Very interesting to know. If the cap which is coming does not fit then Dometic is our next port of call. We may have to get the whole tank.

Nev and Penny Posted January 21, 2017 Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 You could try large mower shops for a fuel cap . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dismart Posted January 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2017 Ended up getting one from Kedron from the black tanks they use now. Was tight but a little reaming of both threads and it now fits well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
