Customer Rating:      Summary: Great for detering gas thieves Comment: I purchased locking gas caps for all the cars in my family (5). Due the the high cost of gas now, we have had neighbors who had gas stolen out of their cars. If a thief tries to steal from any of our cars, it would take more effort than its worth to get to ours. I would suggest buying these because they are a very good cap and a great value.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Gas Cap Not recomended Comment: Stant 10506 Locking Fuel Cap
I bought this to have some ease of mind about not losing fuel to gas thievs or vandals. It works just fine and lock great on my car (1998 Chevy Blazer), but it allowed gas fumes to leak out of the tank which reduced the gas efficiency of my car. With gas prices steadly rising, I would not recomended this to consumers.
And if you live in an area when an emmissions test is required to obtain an inspection sticker, the leaking fumes will cause your car to fail.
Customer Rating:      Summary: easily removable while locked Comment: This cap seemed good at first. However closer inspection reveals that this will only deter the least determined of gas theives, and is more of a visual deterrent then an actual security device.
A close look at the design of my filler neck reveals the nubs on the cap just sit behind the guides on the filler neck. They don't lock in. What this means is that if you pull up on the cap and turn, there is a friction battle between where the spinning top contacts the base of the cap and the nubs against filler neck. Guess which has less friction... the nubs against the filler neck. For this design to work, the cap would need to spin on ball bearings, or something else that has less friction then the nubs against the filler neck.
Bottom line: If you pull up on the locked cap with gentle to moderate force and turn the cap, it comes right off. The design of the filler neck plays a role, so this may not be true for all cars, however it is true for my Saturn Ion.
