Hi Rafael, We have had this issue also. The cover /plug can be levered out with a screwdriver under the lip. The only way i found to stop it dripping was to put silicone RTV around it and push it back

Not from above. Joel was spot on. Really appreciated! Thanks Bro!

Adagio's fuel gauge was stuck on "Full" for a while so I pulled the sending unit out and found it broken. I tried to repair it, but decided against it as should the rod break free (again) I might
