Honda EU2000i alternative gas caps for adding external tank

For those looking to add an external fuel tank to your Honda EU2000 generator, I discovered a few alternative gas caps that fit the generator. This way you do not have to destroy your stock generator gas cap, and instead you can drill or tap through a cheaper gas cap. With all the part numbers listed below, be sure to look for gas caps that have more of a flat top than dome top. I believe this could help when you try and get a tight seal.

The gas caps on the Honda HR214 and GXV120 mowers fit. You will need to remove the vented insert inside the cap and install a rubber gasket. You could use the rubber gasket from your stock cap or make one from an inner tube or other rubber gasket material.

Here are some Honda part numbers for the gas caps.
17620-ZE6-000, 17620-ZE7-000, 17620-ZE8-000, 17620-ZG9-000
Also Oregon part # 07-318

Another option would be Honda part # 17620-888-000. These are for a Honda HR21 or GV150 mowers
