Fit a short length of capped hose to the disoposal fixture.
In most grocery stores, and even in Wal-Mart, where they sell the dishwasher soap, they sell small bottles of dishwasher cleaner. You put the bottle of cleaner in the dishwasher, without the cap, open side down. And you run the dishwasher the way you normally would, but with nothing else in it. When the cycle is done, your dishwasher should be clean and not have any bad odors. I saw this answer and wanted to post a suggestion. We found that doing this and lots of all the other things wouldn't take the smell away for long. Its always came back. Then I remembered that the inspector had said something about the hose under the sink when we bought our new house. I got out the book and sure enough he noted that the hose between the dishwasher and disposal needed a loop in it 6in higher than the bottom of the sink because we didn't have the vent on top of the sink. So we were getting the smells from the disposal coming into the dishwasher. My husband pulled out the dishwasher and was able to find enough hose to do this and WOW no more smell! Hope you check this out and that its fixes your problem as well.
Check for a torn seal on the cap, look for cracked or disconnected hoses around the tank and engine.
Yes, a disconnected or broken TACH wire from the HEI distributor cap can cause a '79 trans to fail to start.
Buy a cap shaper (in plastic houseware section at Wal Mart) and place your cap inside. Load into an empty dishwasher on top shelf and load washer w/Cascade or other auto dishwasher detergent and set cycle for short wash. Caps come out clean and can be hung to dry inside the shaper.

Put it on the top rack of the dishwasher and wash it with the next load--takes out the stains and smells and keeps its shape too.
Besides automatic dishwashing detergent? 3/4 teaspoon of salt and 1 tablespoon of baking soda. Place both in the dispenser and close the cap. It’s better than nothing if you don’t have detergent for the dishwasher.

I had to replace the fuel/gas cap as the gasket was leaking air & caused the light to go on....Cost me $80 plus.....replace the cap, disposal fee & labor for a simple gas cap & resetting the lights.... Boyntonbaker Florida
if it's plastic pipe you can just buy a glue cap and glue it on. If it's galvanized or cast iron pipe you can use a gym cap, (arubber cap that comes with a hose clamp). Just put that on the pipe and tighten it down firmly. this will prevent any sewer gas from coming out of the drain.
Remove the plastic cap as much as you can. Pull gently or leave it alone. Don’t scrape it off. It will damage the heating element. Unload the dishwasher and set those dishes aside. If you can bi pass the wash cycle and set it to dry cycle only, let it run for 20 minutes or longer. It will burn out the rest of the plastic smell and eventually go away. If this doesn’t work, run the dishwasher empty. More than likely the element is used to heat water and dry dishes. Once the smell is gone, rewash the previous load with detergent.
yes, it will fill the hole in the panel if you have no blank covers, if you want to be sure it is completely inert, disconnect the power lead and cap it.
My suggestion is to have it dry cleaned instead. Soak it in a mixture white vinegar and water to set the color. Then, place in a plastic hat form and put it on the top shelf of the dishwasher. Use dishwasher soap, not laundry soap. Your hat should come out clean.
