Petrol Cap lock

PostPost by: l10tus » Wed Sep 18, 2024 3:07 pm

Whilst on the subject of locks - does anyone have any idea where I could get a Lowe and Fletcher type lock for a petrol cap?

The one removed was destroyed in the process, it's the type with the chrome cover over the lock slot, that moves out of the way when the key is inserted, and has a roll pin on the bottom securing the spring and base washer in place.

No idea of the L&F key series number, however a couple of keys tried seemed to have the two slotted channels in them, (9000 series key?)

With or without the key.
