Product Description
Stant locking gas caps are OEM quality both in construction and materials as well as deterrent to fuel theft and vandalism. A gas/fuel cap performs three very important functions; safety of the vehicle's occupants, fuel economy and reduce emissions. Safety: Without a fuel cap, gasoline vapors will be present around your car at all times. Those vapors can be ignited by a random spark or flame and are very dangerous if you are involved in an accident or rollover. Fuel Economy: According to Sun Oil Company research, a vehicle with a missing or inoperative fuel cap will allow 176 pounds (22 gallons) of gasoline to evaporate over the period of one year. Emissions: Gasoline vapors emit hydrocarbons which dissolve the earth's ozone layer and cause smog.

Excellent quality cap to keep your fuel from walking away and anything other than fuel going into your tank. Very easy to operate: To lock, just turn the cap until you hear three clicks! That's it, no key required to lock it. To unlock, insert the key in and turn 1/4 rotation counterclockwise, and then unscrew the cap. Too easy!

The Stant Locking Fuel Cap is an inexpensive way to save your expensive fuel gas from being siphoned out of your gas tank or having a damaged engine if the gas is tampered with. Completely filled, the gas tank on my truck costs upwards of 65 green ones! I don't doubt that with summer travel time coming the cost of fuel will continue to rise. Bad enough to pay for a tankful once to drive me where I want to go but having to pay a second time to replace a tankful of siphoned off gas that got me nowhere except back at the gas pump would be a big kick in the wallet, not to mention other places! I figure paying a one time cost of twenty dollars for the locking fuel cap to continuously safeguard my fuel is money well spent. Besides, if you sell your vehicle you can always put the old non locking cap back onand keep the locking one for your next ride. I also invested in the POP & LOCK Permanent Keyed Tailgate Lock and have been satisfied with both of them. ~ The Boss

Although the "Make sure it fits" says it will not fit my vehicle, the manufacturer's web site says it will fit my vehicle. I trusted the manufacturer and ordered the cap from Amazon and yes, it fits. Not only that, it is identical in size and shape to the original gas cap, except it has a key hole in it. It looks, feels and operates in a quality manner. I gave it 5 stars (instead of 4) b/c you do not have to leave the key in the cap to lock or unlock it, which is a major convenience.
This is what all products should be: well-designed and quality for a reasonable price.
