Tank cap holder for Volvo 700 and 900
01.03.2024
Some Volvo drivers of the 700 and 900 series actually don't know that it exists: The practical fuel filler cap holder in the fuel filler flap.
The reason for this is that it was usually missing when the car was purchased second-hand. Just like the hinge of the fuel filler flap, the fuel filler cap holder suffers from operating errors when refueling. A fixed fuel nozzle swings during the refueling process. If the nozzle rests against the attached fuel filler cap, the hinge and fuel filler cap holder are subjected to excessive stress and eventually break. If, on the other hand, the fuel nozzle is carefully hooked in, the fuel filler cap holder and the fuel filler flap hinge will last forever.
The fuel filler cap holder in the picture is still the first one from 1994.
However, unlike the hinge, the fuel filler cap holder doesn't flaunt its absence so openly, so its replacement is often forgotten.
However, it is extremely practical and ensures that the fuel filler cap is screwed back in and does not remain on the fuel pump when it is used.
The fuel filler cap holder was discontinued by the vehicle manufacturer a few years ago without replacement. We had it reproduced from the original sample.
The fuel filler cap holder including retaining spring is now available in our store under the number 1020756.
