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.

Will get the job done
By J. W. Grimaldi
We all know its coming. Gas had just hit 4 dollars when i decided to get a lock, and the price will inevitably rise, 5 dollars, 6 dollars, 10 dollars per gallon. There is only so much oil in the world. I live in the city and I have a 25 Gallon gas tank. I forsee this lock functioning 2 fold, as a deterent, and as an actual lock. 10 bucks you cant go wrong, just make sure you goto the Stant website to make sure you are getting the right size, dont depend on amazon.com to tell you if it fits or not. I give it a 4 and not a 5 because i dont like the key and I would of liked to have seen it with a lanyard.

Effective deterrent, quality could be better
By Nicholas R. Zurfluh
The cap is effective to prevent someone from easily siphoning your tank. Living in Oregon means that I must provide the fuel pump attendant with the key and for some the operation of the cap is challenging. I would prefer that the cap were more sturdy, it feels fragile to me. There is play in the lock that allows greater travel than I would prefer. There are not many choices of caps to choose from and this is unfortunate.

works great
By parkis
So far so good, and it's working great. No problems for my '97 Jeep Cherokee Sport. You turn the key 90 degree to the left, then turn back to retract the key before you unscrew the cap.
