Pretty sure someone stole some gas from me.

So wednesday night I had a half a tank of gas left. Thursday morning I get in my truck and I had between a half and quarter tank left. ANd also my check engine light came on later that day for a po446. So just to be cautious i want to order a locking fuel cap. Does anyone have one that they recommend? Perferably one that will not throe a code.

 

Don't you have a lock on your gas door?

 

Negative.

 

i would just go to auto zone and get a locking one from there.

but thats not really that much gas, if someone was going to steal gas it would be more than a gallon or 2. sometimes your fuel gage doesnt register (as exact) untill the truck is turned off and back on again

 

My first thoughts also.

 

I thought that. But im only at 236 miles right now. Normally i would be at close to three hundred at a 1/4 tank.

 

Even if your gas wasn't stolen, I would still recommend getting a locking gas cap. It would prevent it in the future. (saving a few gallons of stolen gas would pay for it)

 

Put sugar in your tank that will show the theives!

On a side note I have used the locking caps from autozone before with no complaints.

 

Damn, what's your average MPG?

 

Everytank im right at 23-25mpg. I drive like a grandpa though.

 

I thought that the Tacoma's had an anti-theft screen in the fuel hose to stop people from siphoning your gas? A locking tank cap is a good idea I got one after my ex-gf sugered my gas tank. A crazy bitch, she was.

 

dam that is some good mpg dude.

maybe you were a little heavier on the foot??
