Oil Cap Rotation Question ?... TY...
[edit] Due to Bandi being Brain Dead today with this, and
DEWFPO's outside looking in help - I am now all Better !!!...
A little help please...
Engine Oil Caps.... I noticed my cap faces 10 o'clock
position, while my wifes faces around the 5 o'clock
position, and I know of another Fj that faces 9 o'clock...
Now, If everyone could take a look at you FJ's oil cap,
and give me a position that it is read from, I would
appreciate !!!... Thanks Much !!!...
Here is My OEM FJ Cap Location... approx. 10 o'clock...
Here is Wifes OEM FJ Cap Location... approx. 5 o'clock...

Remove the two filler tube bolts and rotate it 180 degrees, reinstall the 2 bolts and yours will be oriented the same as your wife's.
