[DML] Re: Replacement gas cap???

["Piszar" <piszar@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Not sure about a replacement, but you can do something about your 
current cap.  My locking gas cap was difficult to turn as well, so I 
lubricated the locking mechanism (the plastic part on the bottom that 
rotates) and the key slot.  It solved my problem, the key turned much 
more freely after that.  You may want to give that a try first, having 
the locking gas cap keyed to your car is a great feature and it would 
be a shame to lose that.
