Seal your fuel system and keep vapors where they belong with the Gates Fuel Tank Cap 31856. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, including the 2010-2013 Ford Transit Connect, 2005-2008 Jaguar S-Type, 2001-2007 Jaguar X-Type, 2005-2009 Land Rover LR3, 2004-2009 Mazda 3 (plus the 2009 Mazda 3 Sport), 2006-2010 Mazda 5, 2008-2013 Volvo C30, 2006-2013 Volvo C70, 2004-2011 Volvo S40, and 2005-2011 Volvo V50 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

  • Sealed filler closure: Fits onto the fuel filler neck to close the tank and maintain the sealed environment the fuel system needs.
  • Vapor containment: Helps keep fuel vapor inside the tank and routed through the intended evaporative path rather than escaping to the atmosphere.
  • Contaminant barrier: Helps keep dirt, debris, and moisture out of the filler neck.

Signs the cap may need replacing include a fuel odor, a cap that won't click or tighten, a cracked or worn seal, or an evaporative-system-related check engine light. If a loose, cracked, or worn cap is the cause of an EVAP leak code, this replacement addresses it — diagnose the cause first, since other components can set the same code.

What vehicles does the Gates 31856 fuel tank cap fit?

What does a fuel tank cap do?

It fits onto the filler neck to seal the tank, maintain the sealed fuel-system environment, keep fuel vapor routed through the intended path, and help block dirt and moisture from entering.

Can a bad fuel cap trigger a check engine light?

Yes — a loose, cracked, or worn cap can cause an evaporative-system leak that sets a code. If the cap is the cause, replacing it addresses it; diagnose first, since other parts can set the same code.

How do I know my cap needs replacing?

Signs may include a fuel odor, a cap that won't click or tighten, a cracked or worn seal, or an evaporative-system-related check engine light.
