Review on πŸ”’ Gates 31828 Locking Fuel Tank Cap: Secure Your Fuel with Confidence! by Robert Capers

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Keeps tank sealed on spares

Follow instructions - insert key, turn 90 degrees counterclockwise, turn back 90 degrees clockwise, remove key, turn cap 90 degrees counterclockwise , remove cover and everything works perfectly every time. Fill the tank, insert the cap, twist clockwise until it clicks and locks back into place. Also, the old cap didn't cover the tank, allowing moisture to mix with the ethanol-based gas (bad). This cap restored the tightness of the filler neck of the tank.

Pros
  • Lock opens with key 1/4 turn
Cons
  • Out of service
