The product, in the report: Briggs & Stratton 799585 gas cap sold by Home Depot
Briggs & Stratton #799585 lawnmower gas cap sold at Home Depot leaks allowing gas to spill onto hot lawnmower engine. This is a design flaw. Other consumers have complained. I complained to Briggs & Stratton and they did not respond. Home Depot rejected my online review of the product.
