Can any one help?..........
I am chasing a fuel cap for a 1974 Montesa Cota 247. It is the "push seal" type not the "screw on" type. Is there one out there somewhere?
Please email me [email protected] or ph 0439 410 445
Thanks

Hi
Montesa parts are often difficult in Australia, you could try
Bultaco Parts Australia - http://www.users.bigpond.com/bultaco.oz/index.html
Don Newell - Bultaco Qld - http://www.newellmotorcycles.com.au/bultaco.htm
Both companies are excellent to deal with and carry some Montesa parts and can get most parts given time
The USA and UK have several specialist suppliers including
http://southwestmontesa.com/ USA
http://rmmontesa.com/ USA
http://www.inmotiontrials.com/ UK
http://www.sammymillerproducts.co.uk/ UK
http://www.sandiford.co.uk/ UK (original Montesa importer to UK)
I have dealt with all of these and they are very knowledgable and reliable wth excellent availability of parts and help.
I have also sourced parts from Spain but it can be slower and more expensive.
I know there are many others in UK, France etc but I have not dealt with them.
Ebay (evil bay) is also a rich source of parts. Good luck and I know that many of the suppliers above have the fuel cap you require. It is also very helpful if you get a parts book. Jared @ Southwest Montesa, John @ Rocky Mountain Montesa have parts books for most models.
