Here is the cap after 48hrs in the cooker:

Most of the rust scale has come off with a little scrubbing but inside where the spring is the rust is still solidly holding the latch from moving---line of site problem---can these caps be taken apart?

Clarance, they can be taken apart. Blow compressed air in the tiny vent hole. Carefull it will come apart like you shot it out of a cannon!

You can also buy them from Napa for 14 bucks. It's a common Honda fuel cap. They have a book with lots of diffrent fuel inline filters and the caps are on the next page or so. I guess the cap is the same as Honda generators and some othere devices that require a fuel tank with bayonet style locking. Found that cap by accedent searching for an inline filter.
