FYI that site has a horrid reputation for not shipping, shipping the wrong thing, not allowing returns on their screwups, and lying customer service reps.

Volvos have the black plastic as well. That's the difference. The plastic has the firing order embossed on it. (I work for Volvo now)

Thanks for the offer people, I do appreciate the help..

As it turns out, someone that I not only deeply respect, but is just plain ol one of the greatest guys I know in this whole 928 world, has surprised me (once again!), with sending a decent used cap to my door at a very nice price.

I bet it is the same guy that helped me out a while back with my throttle cable cup end. I would have offered up one of the ones Dr. Bob gave me but I saw they wouldn't fit your year. Glad you got it solved.
