    With gas prices like they are, people have reported a lot of theft.
    I purchased a Stant Locking Gas Cap however it is causing the Check
    Engine Light to come on.
    Anyone in Tacoma World have any luck with another brand?

    Thanks!

    I wouldn’t even bother. I’ve heard the crooks are just drilling holes in tanks. I’d rather someone siphon some gas from my tank then have to replace the the tank.

    I believe there is already an anti siphon setup down the filler neck of the tank. And like stated, if they want the gas, they are going to just drill a hole.

    Those locking gas caps, it a crap shoot. I've seen many Amazon reviews stating theirs caused a check engine light. The last 2 I bought, both were good. If you can, return yours for a replacement.
