Gas cap

[TheKid]

Does anyone sell a easy-open gas cap? The R3T is flush to the tank (they may all be?), and O'L Uncle Arthur is set up in my hands and makes me look like I should be on TV selling can and jar openers. Any help is always appreciated.

I believe you can buy a keyed cap but holding the key and turning it may be more of a problem....ill keep searching

Looks like I gotta shell out some of that hard earned, or bring a strap wrench with me untill I find a good deal. Thanks to all. That was quick.

I open it with the key to open the gas cap key is a nice grip

Yea I've never had a problem with mine either. Maybe the vent line could be plugged causing a vacuum lock on the cap.

It's not very tall, looks kinda flat. Like it was made to look flat, or recessed. I don't have enough to get a grip on. I think I'll try a light bit of "o" ring lube. We'll see.

Not sure how different your cap is but I press my cap in (R3 Std) as I turn the key and it opens easily.
