where to buy locking fuel cap?

as said above, where do you buy replacements from? repco has been just useless, and none of the universal, off the shelf items fit.

thanks guys! im counting my lucky stars everytime i fill up that they key will still work!

    Try an Autobarn, they are usually very helpful.

    Thanks Craig

    Go to Autobarn (or Repco) and ask for a CPC SL70 cap.

    I am assuming you still have the side fuel tank?

    If its a drop tank (later MK2) its a SL44EC

    If half the key is in the lock, take it to the local locksmith. They'll have it fixed within no time and can cut you a new key.

    Doesn't cost that much. Just take the cap in to them.

    by rear do you mean drop tank or side tank? or are the caps the same?
    (different part numbers?)

    hello Sterling,
    Rear, between the tail lights, behind the licence plate.
    Not sure if the same as the side mounted filler cap.
