The threaded neck on mine went oblong in shape so the cap would never completely seal. You also cant over tighten this stupid set up or it tends to mess it up and you will have a hell of a time getting the cap off. I put in the metal insert i bought from Tom at Motts ( pretty sure you can buy at most dealers now ) and it seems to keep the shape of the neck the way its supposed to be and haven,t had any leaking or difficulty taking off the cap since.
i have the insert too i had to die grind out the inside seams for it to slip in its perfectly round now but to still no avail it will not thread on right im going to try my friends cap and see if there is any difference should be the same result but stranger things have happened. Im tired of losing oil out of the cap maybe a plastic bag then the cap for now and a new tank in the summer.
