Fuel Tank Cap

Can I have a plain screw cap on my fuel tank for SVA, or does it need to be some kind of locking affair with a restriction for unleaded nozzles?



Cheers,
James

Needs an unleaded restrictor if you using a cat..

Ok thanks.

Any ideas on a cheap compliant cap?

Cheers,

Does anyone know of a locking cap that will fit a screw-cap type tank? One of my friends had his classic motorbike torched by somehow who just unscrewed the tank cap and put a burning rag in it. Nice......

Everytime I leave the motor I worry I'll come back to the fire engine. Wondered about tig welding a bar to it that padlocks onto a similar thing on the tank. But a more normal looking locking cap would be nicer- not sure if you retrofit it?!?!
