r8rs4lf Posted April 11, 2005 Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 I recently bought a locking gas cap from Autozone. It really didn't tighten up like the stocker, but I still went with it. A few days later I had the engine light come on, something about a leak. I got it cleared only to have it come on again today. My question is, have any of you bought a locking gas cap and had no problems? If so, where, how much, and a part number would be nice.

AUTOGUY Posted April 11, 2005 Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 You can get a locking gas door if the cap is not working out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ImpoSStor SS Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 For my 2004 Silverado it was GM p/n 12497880. It doesn't look like the stock, non-locking cap but it fits the way it should. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

truckin05 Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 Your local chevy dealership should sell the locking gas cap. Some have them in stock and some will have to order them. Make sure that you get a vented one. The SS I think has a vented gas cap so the gas tank won't collaspe. I have one for the SS which I had ordered for a 04 Silverado 4.8 V8 and it fit tight so I am guessing that they are pretty much the same. Good Luck!
