Earl,

IMHO after having lost a few and trying to replace them (Stant use to make a
non-locking cap) It's not worth the effort.  I think as long as no one know
about this and you don't hang a screw driver from the side of the van it
should be fine.  The only person that will know that it works with a
screwdriver is the guy that is in the process of stealing you gas and its
too late but at least he won't destroy your cap

Jere

The lock on my gas cap doesn't.  the cap can be turned with any key
or screwdriver.  A replacement costs $50.  What have others on the
list in this situation?

TIA
