Kurt,The same cap was cracked and leaking on my 802 when I first got it home. Instead of replacing it with a cheap rubber cap I used a very short piece of heater hose, slid it on, clamped it with a stainless clamp and then plugged it short round piece of metal stock and clamped that it place with another stainless clamp. Two years later and running it a dozen or so times it's working just fine.
Not pretty but it ought to last a lot longer than the rubber cap.
Zep has an aerosol for just about anything:I thought ZEP only came in liquid cans when I looked it up and ordered it.
Oh well, it was worth a try. I think I'd do the same as you and try to adapt something else in it's place.Thanks for suggestion. I am trying to free up the solenoid but even after soaking it for some 12 hrs in a rust cleaner solution it is not working.
I'll look into red scotchbrite (I am not familiar with it) and find out where it can be obtained.
One other plan is to use the case (K1 gutted) and mount 3+1 solid state relays on the walls and see if that works, if not I'll look for a 3 phase 50 Amp relay/contactor that can be driven by 24V DC .
