billycar Posted March 13, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 Unfortunately, there's no photo. That number probably points to the version that only fits previous models. Price-wise, that would sort of confirm my suspician. Thanks for your help though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 Actually there's nearly no chance that anyone could just shove a hose in the capless fuel fill and syphon any gas. The neck is fairly complicated. And drilling a hole in a gas tank has always been around, theres just no defense against it. And, its just not done very often.

billycar Posted March 27, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2022 (edited) I found one that fits. Best price out of Las Vegas ... $55 plus tax incl.

billycar Posted March 27, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2022 Fits nicely. Although a little awkward to get it in. Peace of mind worth the jiggle. (All yours ... Go for it) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted March 28, 2022 Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 I haven't seen it, but some of the remarks on Levittown Ford described it as "cheap and flimsy", and "could pry it off with a flat head screw driver ". Same could probably be said of all caps. Stop some individual from pouring sugar into the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billycar Posted March 29, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2022 Yes ... that's the one! LoL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billycar Posted March 29, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2022 I'm actually starting to think of a way to use it, mounted under a PVC Cap (I got at our Home Depot) with a key hole of course, to create a more tough capping off of the capless. Our Tractor Supply also packages a metal Dust Cap of good dimensions; but, they're charging $24 for 2. About the thinness of the one that works ... the tolerance of the swivel part is so close, I could not seem to duplicate it with a cabinet lock I had picked up at the hardware store. I'm getting there ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Dude (sorry, couldn't resist), if you post a few pictures of the capless area, I'll venture a guess. Make sure to show what the inner circle area slots look like. I'm guessing it's the one that doesn't fit mine (BU5Z-9C268-B). Edited March 30, 2022 by billycar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
