Now you'll have to find a cap for the key slot to keep it clear of dirt, water, etc.

Why did they go to capless? Is the concept of a gas cap just too much for some people to handle? Not like anyone is doing NASCAR splash and gos at the local Sinclair station.

I have a 2017 Silverado Z71. I found that the cap from a can of Krylon paint fits perfectly  and just a little snug on the capless fuel filler,  and its FREE.  When looking for a spray can cap, b

I just used a paint spray can cap. Fits right over capless fill port and also works to hold the gas pump open so i don't have to hold it. Here in NY all the gas stations take off the pump handle holder.

Search for this "Fernco PQC-102 2" Qwik Cap".  Its what I used. You dont need the clamp that come with it.

GM now offers a filler ‘cover’.. there’s a recent thread here about it. I picked one up on eBay for $15

Where can I buy this?  At least once a month, some scumbag steals gas out of my truck... I guess the best economy in 50 years and record low unemployment isn't enough for some people to just get an F'ing job, and they feel the need to steal gas from people...  I need a locking gas cap apparently...

Some will not want or be able to take /keep employment for reasons beyond job availability or the economy.  This has not changed.   How are thieves getting your fuel?  I thought syphoning gas was too difficult now and thieves were cutting lines.    I have a friend who leaves her car unlocked at night as she was tired of thieves damaging her car while looking for loose change.  Maybe leaving your gas filler unlocked prevents more costly damage!

No lines cut, but I don't think the anti-siphon tank works at all...  They can still snake a small tube down there if they want, it seems.  Been going on for many months, I see no signs of cuts or drilling, no leaks...  Just some lowlife too lazy to work feels they are entitled to what I work for.

One of these nights I hope to catch him on camera, or better yet, at the end of a 12ga shotgun, and hold him till the cops come to collect him...

Thanks for the info.

You're lucky they don't just drill a hole in the bottom of your tank. Best to get some cameras on your truck to catch them. How about those driveway alarms. The ones that have a beam of light crossing your driveway. When the light beam is broken an alarm goes off in your house. Maybe you can rig that up somehow near or around your truck. Then have your 12 gauge ready.

      Fluid Change Questions

      I would be surprised if the diff's were not filled (with the cheapest gear lube) at the axle factory before being shipped to GM.  If you ever watched them building trucks they install the axles and all suspension parts with the frame upside down and then turn it over before its time to install the engine.     Too much gear lube in a axle can be worse than not enough especially with a lower quality GL where is get whipped up with entrained air (foam)  weakening its ability to lubricate.

      This is the 6.6 gasser section of the forum, you should either delete or modify your previous post as it is misleading for anyone looking for factual information on their 6.6 gas engine.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      Well....I've done my first intake gasket. Probably wrong, but...we'll see?   Ultra black on the china walls and 1/4" up onto the sides of the intake gaskets. Permatex High Tack (couldn't find Gaskachinch) on the head side of the intake gasket. I read wrong and it says you're supposed to put it on the mating surface of the head, not the gasket. Hoping it's like a PB&J sandwich where it doesn't matter what side the PB goes on so long as there's jelly. That crap is messy/sticky and I got a dab or two on the intake port openings, tried to wipe it off. Hopefully it won't be a big deal and will only aid in sealing.   Per instructions I left the intake (top side) of the gasket dry except for a light smear of RTV around the coolant ports. Wiggling the intake in there was a bear but I had help to free me of surrounding wiring/stuff but I was basically able to set it straight down lined up with the bolt holes.   I did not think to wait until the RTV skinned over but there probably was 5-10 minutes while it sat before installing the intake.   Bolts finger tight first. Then, followed the Chilton's manual pattern to snug them to 15 lb-ft.   Waited a little over an hour, and then did the final torque in sequence again to 35 lb-ft.   Yesterday I replaced the fuel pressure regulator and got my new "nut and bolt kit" (fuel lines) installed. Damn GM used security torx on the spider, which I don't have, so I got scammed at the local HW store for an off-brand security Torx bit set.   The new driver's door mirror arrived yesterday, so, there's a chance this thing could be running and road legal tomorrow? I don't want to get my hopes up.   This will be my first time stabbing a distributor, too. Although, lucky me, someone else marked the old distributor for removal previously, I did see that. (Someone's been here before!!). Engine is still at TDC so it *should* be just a matter of transferring the mark to the new dizzy and rotating it into place.

      He has his dad’s newer truck he’s put away. He has several old cars he rotates between him and his family. I’ve seen a restored square body and a SS Chevy truck he’s sometimes drives. He did raffle off a new suburban recently. As much as he is watched if he drove new stuff as a rule we’d know it. It would be fine by me. I don’t care what people prefer. I got one more new one in me. I’d rather my wife get one. I can’t get her out of the Genesis. Don’t tell anyone. I want her to get an electric truck. I want to put a generator in the back. Just because. She hasn’t bit yet.

      Yes, you must have seen my thread on the Blazer. HOT GARBAGE, but I love them anyway. I'm convinced every car guy has a soft sport for an S/T series somewheres. Probably even a Panther too, if I'm being an honest car guy. That doesn't mean they aren't junk. And they definitely don't get better with age. I sometimes play with old cars, but that's by choice. I don't rely on them and they aren't my everyday fleet.   Derek plays the common man on Youtube and that's no doubt where he started. Now he has Youtube money (and Motortrend, etc). You think his crews and his wife ride around in old beaters when they're chasing him and his wrecks across the country? No he's got newer and nicer stuff for that, you'll see glimpses of it in the footage.
