I have an old Husqvarna 155BT backpack blower that has a Kawasaki engine, with a plastic fuel tank. The fuel cap was leaking, so I bought a new one. It came just as in the photos, without any sort of gasket in it, and it too leaks, from the little button thing in the middle. I assumed that was a one way valve that would allow air in but not allow fuel out, but the fuel comes out of it in a stream. What am I missing here?
