    Has anyone found a locking gas cap for the ‘24 that doesn’t throw a CEL?

    You do you, but some lost gas is preferable to a damaged gas inlet/orifice. Those determined to get the gas won’t be stopped by a locking cap.

    I was hoping for one that wouldn’t damage the inlet/orifice.
    Thanks for your reply.

    Then again, if you're the only vehicle on the block with a locking cap, more likely that scumbags will bypass your truck for one of many other easier targets in the vicinity.

    People still steal gas? Figured all the anti siphon plugs would have stopped that.

    The assumption is stealing gas. It could possibly be to prevent any other liquids from going into the fuel tank.

    Thread size is the same as 2009-2023? Try MotoRad MGC791. It has the highest success rate amongst all the aftermarket locking caps (about 60% according to Amz ratings).

    If you have two vehicles, there's an SKU MotoRad MGC791SK which includes two caps keyed alike, so one key works on both vehicles.

    That's unfortunate, if true.

    I've had mine on for years with no problems, but figured I'd be able to pick up another if one ever arose. Might be time to buy a spare or two just to have them on hand.

    I ordered this one. Seems to have all of the authenticating features from the other post.

    Stant 10504 has been discontinued for over a year. You'll most likely get a knockoff as the Walmart marketplace seller has a generic name "GlamourAvenue".

    MotoRad owns Stant and lists MGC791 as the superseding P/N, so most legit part stores will ship you an MGC791 if you order the Stant.

    Correct, a real Stant has the "S" stamped on the side of the handle:

    Some O’Reilly auto parts still stock them.
