Fuel Filler Rubber Gromet

Post by LBCNut »

Does anyone have a source for the rubber grommet that goes between the body and the fuel filler neck on a 4AD Roadster? The hole in the body is 3" and the filler neck is 2". Thank you.

I found one from a Citroen Ami, but maybe there are better options.
The Citroen type fits, not perfect but no gaps.

Hi,

I bought one for my Roadster several years ago via the Singer Club in the UK and unfortunately do not have a direct source for a grommet that I know would be a perfect fit. However, with some web searching I found this US site that seems to have several models that might be usable. Especially this one looks quite close to the one I have on my car and also the dimensions seem suitable - https://metrommp.com/gas_filler_grommet ... _id_gf_53/

Might be worth a try.

Regards,
Pekka

Thank you all for the replies. I think I’ll try the Metro part as I think that finding the Citroen part will be almost as difficult as finding a Singer original. I’ll report back to the thread on figment.

Metro MADE the fuel filler grommet for NASOC back in the 70's-80's, kind of surprising they dont have it anymore.
