I know everyone is going to yell at me for wasting money, but
last fall after buying my 140, I drove to the IH dealer in the next
county and bought a new muffler and a new multi-baffled gas
cap. I knew about the free gas cap program, but figured with
my hilly terrain and tendency to put as much gas in the tank as
possible (to limit condensation), it was not worth the risk to
bumping
around with a rusty near-fifty year old single baffle drooling gas
cap. Growing up, I knew of a boy that got blown off an offset
Farmall (just got singed hair and some flash burns) during
refueling. I can't remember what the new cap cost, but I don't
recall it being much more than $10 or $15. Burns are expensive
and if you are 200 pounds like me, getting off a 140 in a hurry is
a much slower proposition at age 52 than it was at age 15.
