View Full Version : Ideally which is the best side to have the gas cap? flatso 11-11-2004, 08:01 PM thanks Gomez 11-11-2004, 08:03 PM Kerb-side....that way you won't get hit by passing traffic when you refill with your jerrycan on the side of the road.....

Backside, so it doesn't matter which pump you use. :) Mr M 11-12-2004, 02:39 AM The same side the gas pumps are on... EZZY 11-12-2004, 03:12 AM dont really care mate, i'd just want every car manufactory to have the fuel caps on the same bloody side. when i had my jap and euro cars at the same time, i could never remember which side it is on...... same with the bloody indicator stick :mad: Gomez 11-12-2004, 04:12 AM Ezzy, there is a little arrow on your fuel gauge pointing to the side of the car the fuel cap is on....if you forget, you can look at the gauge before you pull up at the pump... Gomez. Slims8 11-12-2004, 08:36 AM I don't guess it matter to me, as long as I know. I am glad everyone's isn't on the same side, that would be terrible. I have the '8 and a Mustang (Mustang has gas cap on Passenger side with no indicator). I used to always drive the '8 except maybe once a week, and that once a week I would try to get gas on the wrong side every time. draco067 11-12-2004, 08:44 AM flatso came out of the lounge! holy crap! samsonite1 11-12-2004, 08:52 AM I'd prefer both sides like the older Lotus Esprits and Jags. That was the best idea they ever had. I guess they needed to make up for the "invention that would change the automotive world" called a positive ground ignition. English 11-12-2004, 08:57 AM Both sides....but in the front. Porche style. Nubo 11-12-2004, 10:04 AM Driver side so you if you forget to put the cap back on or close the lid you will see it in the sideview mirror. Also easier to judge the distance to the pump.
