Re: Gas Cap Identify Help

I quit using locking caps years ago. I found I lost more gas making hard rights than was ever likely to be siphoned out by theives. [The original use of the Canadian insult ''Hosers'' referred to gas siphon theives.]
Also when I lost the cap lock key, and had to musclef@%$ it off -- the neck was damaged and I wound up swapping in a '67 tank. After hot tanking it, painting the outside spraycan Aluminum and putting in a new float assembly.
And of course, the sender reads all different now.
The cap I have on the Stepside now goes ''Whoosh'' when I crack it open.
