they didn't have it.  That's when I found a locking cap at a wrecking yard

this is what I do, open siding door throw cap with keys on the
floor. todays pumps are so big someone could take your cap after they
fill up.. DOH :)  misplacing it for you.

* why don't gas stations have a box with gas caps for you to look threw *
i bet they just throw them away :(
