  • Installing a licking gas door on my Jeep Wrangler JK. With gas prices the way they are, and this being my outside vehicle, I am not giving anyone the opportunity to siphon any fuel!

    Oh man I need this on my old jeep cherokee xj. In the pandemic I’ve left it Parked outside and had my fuel stolen from me twice. Thanks for the idea

    Thank you for making this video🙏🏼!! Idk if I’m paranoid or what, but twice now my gas cap has been off. I don’t think anyone is taking my gas but maybe? To be sure, getting one of these!! Doesn’t look too hard to install either.

    I still don't understand why jeep hasn't made it standard to have a locked cover on it.

      My guess is that it’s cheaper to produce it without a door.

      @@CliffsHowTo I am pretty sure customers wouldn't mind paying $60 more for it. By the way I order the same one you have and hopefully my install goes smoothly. Should get here next week.

      They want to keep some of the original things from the first Jeeps but some do come with a cover just not locked

    Mine is very loose...not sure what else to do followed the directions exactly

      Mine was a little. I used a small crescent wrench to bend the metal a bit near the locking/mounting clips, to tighten it up.
      You could also remove the door again, and put a little RTV black at the contact point, around the lip of the gas door. That would hold it.

      It's still a good idea to have a lock so kids don't play around with pouring water into the gas tank.

    How do you get it to not spin around? Mine spins real super loose

      Try some RTV black on the mating surface

      @@CliffsHowTo did you have to use any black RTV? Or did I do something wrong? Plus my filler tube seems loose as well

    • @CliffsHowTo
      @CliffsHowTo  Рік тому

      I didn’t. What I did was take it back out, and bend the metal inward a bit, near the mounting tabs. But it think just putting a bit of RTV may be a better/less invasive method.
      Make sure you move the rubber gasket that goes around the filler tube from the old gas cap surround, to the new surround.
