I have a year old TT75A with less than 200 hours on it, and it's recently developed a problem. When I fill the fuel tank (about 3/4), fuel splashes out from the fuel cap when I'm driving on rough ground. Anyone else experience this? My first thought was that the cap was cross threaded, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I think it's just leaking out the vent, but it's not safe and not acceptable for a new tractor (quite a bit of fuel is splashing out). Any quick fixes?

Thanks.

Haven't seen that problem with mine, it seems to seal ok. I had some leaking there last weekend, but that was my fault, I didn't crank the cap closed all the way after refueling...

Is there perhaps some sort of o-ring on the cap that has fallen off, that would otherwise prevent slopping out? That is what it sounds like.

If it's not under warranty, a new cap is less then $10 from NH (source: Messicks)
