Solved that problem by fabricating my own cap with a junkyard MC cap from a 90's vintage Mazda, a brass nipple and some sealant. My homemade cap works on my FC, and also fits my '03 Mazda Protege5.

I've been thinking of picking up the motive, but the stories I'd heard about the fumbly "universal" cap on the Mazda's has made me hold off.
Do you have a picture you could post of how you fabricated it? I'm pretty sure I know what you did, but I like pictures to verify things.
