I know this isnt what you ask but it isnt worth the trouble. If I want to steel your gas you haveing a locking gas cap just means I am going to have to walk back to my truck to get a screw driver and since I am a theif I wouldnt care if anything falls in your tank. Just my .02

Or you can cut the rubber line from the tank under the truck.

So correct me if I'm wrong,
There are 3 things I can think of when looking to purchase a Chrome Locking Gas Cap:
1)Wheather your Tank is "Vented" or not.
2)Whether it has an EEC System.
3)The size of the neck in relationship to the Cap.

I'm looking at the 3 Major parts distributors for GMC parts and they List exactly what I'm looking for in a Gas Cap only it is for 67-71 GMC.

I have a 72 GMC.

Unless it was a Screw on type cap, I feel that as long as I follow the 3 guidlines above, I should be OK..............correct?

This is true, however I even took care of that. I made the gas thief not like me.
