Marcelo — The original deck plate is not designed for an o-ring and leaves nothing to be desired.

I noticed that the water fill cap does not have an o-ring but there appears to be no groove for one either. This is the first time I have removed the cap since I purchased her last year since I knew the tank was not usable at the time. My waste and fuel caps do have o-rings. I wonder if the water fill cap is designed not to have an o-ring. It is probably an old W-C brand.
