I see no reason for a locking gas cap to throw a code....

the lock has nothing to do with the seal or the pressure vent..

but get a good one.. try Ford.

but CHEAP.. has poor seals an almost sealing pressure vents..

If you are getting a code, it has to do with the rubber seal on the cap, not the lock. This is the Stant locking cap.

Stant 10510Y Locking Fuel Cap

It is the yellow cap for Flex Fuel.

I had a stant locking gas cap that I put on after noticing my gas level drasticly going down. About a month ago I started getting the gas cap loose error and some P codes. I put on my original cap and the codes still came on. Well after some research I found out it was the purge valve, it was stuck open. Everything's back to normal and I think my heavy foot contributed to the gas level going down.

The why

I live where gas is high and going higher and people putting things in my tank is not out of the question. Yes believe it
