Locking fuel cap
Looking to see if anyone has found a locking gas cap that fits their late model F 250. The application guides online give mixed results and I don't believe they are anything like reliable. Stant's guide, in particular, shows some odd results.

I spent money on a locking gas cap for my 1996 Jeep. Then one day, when I needed to drop the tank, I tried to siphon it down. Turned out it couldn't be done. It's my understanding all new(er) tanks have some kind of baffle to prevent that sort of thing.
You might try siphoning your tank before springing for a new cap.
