A fuel cap leakage tester (210) is provided comprising a fuel cap support (20), a pressure source (261), and a monitor (32). The fuel cap support (20) is formed to include a test chamber (28) and is adapted to receive a fuel cap (30) to be tested in the test chamber (28) to establish a pressurizable region, (57) therein and a sealed connection between the fuel cap (30) to be tested and the fuel cap support (20). The monitor (32) is positioned to communicate with the pressurizable region (57) formed in the fuel cap support (20) and is configured to measure air pressure in the pressurizable region (57). The fuel cap leakage tester (210) further comprises a system (222, 224, 226) for communicating a flow of pressurized air from the pressure source (261) to the pressurizable region (57) with a predetermined pressure drop of the pressurized air therebetween. The monitor (32) measures the pressure level of the pressurized air in the pressurizable region (57) to determine whether the fuel cap (30) to be tested meets or exceeds a predetermined leakage flow rate.
