65 Mustang gas cap

[chemeng]

Hi all,

Just bought and installed a new Scott Drake gas cap with the safety wire. When I screw the cap closed it sits at an odd angle, the passenger side is a lot closer to the taillight panel than the drivers side. Is there a way to take the gas cap apart? The filler cap is flush with the panel and the old gas cap sat evenly on the filler cap.

Has anyone else seen this?

Thanks, Mike

stinkin' repop crap!!! this is why i watched ebay for months looking for a nice original cap. i say send it back, if the filler neck sits true to the tail light panel.
