Lads-

The 1944 MB that i help maintain for the National Infantry Museum has a few issues that I'd like to see if others have run into the same;

1. Gas Cap
Replaced the Gas Tank & cap about a year ago & went to do some maintenance on the MB this past weekend & I cannot get the gas cap off; does vapor lock happen w/ MB's like this?

2. Brakes / Wheels
Took the MB out back in December & after a few miles, whenever I pushed clutch in & took her out of gear, the Jeep wouldn't "coast" that much, almost as if something wasn't preventing it from doing so; rims weren't hot when I stopped driving & emergency brake was completely disengaged - any ideas?

As always - thanks for any/all assistance
