Default EZ Fill Gas Cap Available?
I have a 2005 F-150 scab & would like to install a fuel cap that doesn't require removal & I found a couple that specifically state they're not legal in OR (where I live), WA & CA. I had an Escape & a Flex with that style & they're a lot easier to use and since I spend 5 - 6 months in the SW during the wet season at home it's strictly a convenience for me because I can't pump my own gas in OR.

OR & NJ - the last two holdouts for no self-service with the exception of some very small towns in OR after the station closes for the night.

won't work on the older trucks. You will keep throwing EVAP codes

Gas caps are not that hard to take off buddy.

Up there, I would think that having an actual cap would be beneficial. Keeps moisture out of the fuel.

Not so much when you're disabled but I didn't want to bring that into the conversation.

Oh well - I'll live with it,

I hear you buddy.. but, if you cant remove a gas cap.. maybe you should not be driving.

If you cannot pump your own gas, why does it matter if it's a regular cap or not? Or am I not understanding this correctly?
