paulyofpa 05-05-2006, 12:11 PM In the 70's during the gas crunch and rationing, there were many people walking around with hoses and bad breath and almost everyone had a locking gas cap... How about a Gas Crisis Special on Locking Caps!!!! and we can keep those hosers out of our tanks! BasicElement 05-22-2006, 07:49 PM Just like the idea of a locking gas cap. It would be so much better if it were keyed the same as the ignition. But beggars can't be choosers. calvin13 05-22-2006, 08:20 PM Why do you need a locking gas cap? From what I understand you cannot siphion from new cars these days. Just ask anyone in South Florida that tried during the hurricanes last year. They have anti-siphioning systems in them. fishlee 05-22-2006, 11:35 PM Just like the idea of a locking gas cap. It would be so much better if it were keyed the same as the ignition.

If you buy the Honda gas cap, you can key it to the ignintion key read this thread to #10. you can do it yourself or you can take it to a locksmith. just don't insert the tumbler into the cap until you rekey it. link; http://www.elementownersclub.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17015 ADAMLSTL 05-23-2006, 12:01 AM If you buy the Honda gas cap, you can key it to the ignintion key read this thread to #10. you can do it yourself or you can take it to a locksmith. just don't insert the tumbler into the cap until you rekey it. link; http://www.elementownersclub.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17015 Wow....

[Quote= Have not seen the anti-siphon set up as used on the Element, but my Dodge van has a caged plastic float ball that shuts off the fuel from spilling out in a rollover. Also works as anti-siphon. I'm more concerned about some "slow leak "(mental case) putting something in the tank. | ||
