I have just phoned Solent Tools and they are waiting for a delivery of these replacement caps to arrive. They took my number and said they will call when in stock - £8.95 inc delivery. I think I'll try a slug pellet lid in the mean time.
Thanks for the advice on where to go.

Remember that the insides of the old cap have to be transferred to the Asda or similar slug pellet cap. Otherwise the strimmer will keep cutting out. Be carful removing parts as the white part can crack as I found out. If the cap is cracked and you have patience then an epoxy resin , funnily enough available at ASDA will seal the ca with a thin layer on the inside after removing the parts. Replacing when it is hard approx 24 hours. This product should however be regarded as "Not suitable for urpose" as it seems it is a common fault.

I have an M25 strimmer with a cracked cap and I phoned them today and they said they've never had the parts in stock to replace and can't help me. I now have a working strimmer with no cap.

Can I confirm which size of Doff's slugoids has the correct cap, also is the Asda slug pellets mentioned their own product or the Doff's product?

Well I phoned the number and you get through to "Pulse Home Products"
To get a cap you need to keep the innards of your existing cap and send them a cheque for £5.50 with an accompanying letter saying that you know that you need to keep the internals of your old cap. The address is Pulse Home Products, Vine Mill, Middleton Road, Royton, Oldham. OL2 5LM Make the cheque to "Pulse Home Products"

A Big thank you for adding the Tel number for J.C.B. I have been trying to fix my petrol cap for some time,with no luck,may I add.You must be right about the cap being a weak point of the trimmer.
Thank You

I had the same problem so when I saw your plea for help I decided it must be a common problem so I contacted JCB and
told them about my perished cap and said I'd been on the internet and seen that other people had the same problem. They immediately said that they would replace the cap and sent me a new one free of charge. Number is ; 0845 602 1381
