REFLECTOR: Fuel caps

[Scott Baker]

Maybe 'Yes' and 'No' ... it depends upon the style of fuel cap that you have.  Through the ages we have seen some locking caps that require their own ring.  Today we have gas cap products with rings that support either locking or non-locking caps; and caps made with either plastic or metal housings.
Call Velocity for more details - Ken Baker would be the best person to speak with.

  I have yet to install the fuel cap "rings" into the top of the strake.  To use a "locking" type
  fuel caps do I need to use different rings, or do I use the ones sent with the kit?
