Can anyone tell me what type of key (make/code...FP FS etc or other) is used on a locking cap.

Well I suppose the same argument could be put forward about the door locks, if they are going to break into it and steal your belongings then why lock it ........if it is a soft top a quick slash with a knife.... may be Mr. Chapman should have saved money and not fitted the door locks at all

Jason,
Looks like we can all get duplicate keys for your fuel tank now! You may want to delete details from your posting.
