Will a 740 oil filler cap fit on a 242 '79?? 200 1979

Or do I have to go to a volvo dealer/junk yard to get one?

I've tried Pepboys, Autozone, neither of them have a cap for a 242 '79.

If this helps....the STANT brand, I believe cap # 11079, is the part for the 740.....


Thanks in advance.

btw, the reason i'm asking is because oil is leaking out from the oil filler cap........ There's not a tight enough seal to keep the oil in. So oil just runs out of the crankcase (via filler cap) and into the engine area when i drive.

If anyone knows how i might fix this besides getting a completely new cap, i'm all ears. THanks.
