I need to post a pic. It's not just "no longer billet-shiny" - it looks like something off a swamp boat. The magnetic pickup frame is rusted.
The weird thing is, it looks like corrosion from the inside. The interior base is heavily corroded, as is the lip... and then out from the lip about a quarter inch around and under. The rest of the outer base and the shaft down to the o-ring is fine. It's as if the cap was filled with acid at one time. Weird.
It's cleaning up nicely, though. I think it's perfectly good except for the visual aspect. I just didn't want any problems down the road; cheap insurance to replace it.
