I had an issue the other night, someone TRIED to siphon gas from my tank, no luck I guess because my tank seemed to be at the same level. Also, I guess there is a anti-siphon mechanism or screen in the tank? Anyways, they got some out of other cars and it got me thinking. I thaught about getting a locking cap for mostly now the reason of not having things put into my tank instead. I don't want a cheapo fillipo one, doesn't have to be Ford either but decent. I'm having a hellova time finding the Ford one's, they give alot of similar numbers, no vehicle matches and sometimes are different prices. Anyone know what the correct number is, I found a number of 6L3Z-9030-AA, but that has changed 70 times since. Another question: Where is good online genuine Ford parts sites? Alot of the ones I click in doing a search give me dead ends, like the site no longer exists. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Wasn't sure where to put this thread either.

 

I bought one at NAPA that is every bit as good as the OEM non-locking one that came on the truck. It even has a little Ford oval on it.

 

you can get them from any local parts store i have had them on all vehicles one of the "cheapos" and it has lasted 4 years and still works fine. But either way defiantly a good investment!

 

Get a Stant locking cap.

 

I remember Navis having them. At least the newer IRS one which is what I saw it on. I think the cap was green when BP was paying ford to put there name on the caps.

 

These guys have good pricing, don't rape for shipping and will answer e-mailed requests:

Ford Parts Here

 

Link had "server error"! That's what I was getting off of others too, maybe my computer is fu<ked. I gotta believe Stant is a good make, christ they make caps for everything and have for years.

 

I just clicked the link I posted and it works fine...

I'd say your synopsis about your PC may be correct !!!

 

Well, for the hell of it I went to NAPA and got one there, nice OEM looking and works good. Problem solved.
