Andy,

I'm with Don.  I owned my 250 since 1975 and it was in very good shape and
totally stock.  There was no sealing gasket/plug of any sort in the filler
cap, just the magnet.  It seems like the previous owner decided to
improvise.

gas cap.  Originally it came with a rubber plug that was attached to the gas
cap (lid?) and had about an inch or so of rubber protrude down into the gas
tank neck to seal it.  I've only seen one TR250 with this plug still in
place.  Anyone know if this is a part that is available anywhere?
