locking fuel cap for Traveller

Post by GuidoDieringer »

HI,

I lost the key for my locking fuel cap.
Does anybody know where to get such a cap?

It looks similar to the old Volvo cap.

Thank you for help![frame]Image[/frame]

They were standard add-on accessories for most cars - locking caps as standard on new vehicles were unheard of in the old days. Many of the normal parts suppliers still offer a locking cap, but it may not be the same as the one that you have at the moment.

I think the old ones were made by Waso and you can usually pick them up on ebay

Yes that is a Waso cap. I don't think that the keys are numbered so you will probably not get a replacement. There are plenty of other locking caps around

Have you tried taking the cap to a locksmith to see about getting a key made?
