you can buy a locking gas cap for like 20 bucks at most auto parts stores.

Seems Too difficult for this owner, to drain his 2004 Silverado LS Fuel tank, for repairs to lines, (in my driveway). Although I Do, have ramps, I also have 1/2 a tank of fuel ( 100lbs +!) Any tips? (bike straps?) I really could use some help! Thank you. JoelPW
