Unhappy Fuel filler cap urgently needed

Howdy y'all. I went to fill up the truck yesterday, and when I popped open the fuel door the cap was missing. None of the local auto parts stores stock a cap for the truck and it would take over 2 weeks to order one. So I need y'alls help. If someone could pick up a cap for me I would really appreciate it. I will pay for the cap and shipping. A locking cap is preffered so this wont happen again. If you can help me PM me or send e-mail and I will get you the address. Thank you very much for your help.

I was going to say that I've heard of Walmart carrying them.

Then I noticed who you were, and where you were.


Hopefully someone else has better advice.

Give them a week or so, they are sprouting up like weeds, taking over everywhere.

I won't have a chance to go and check as I am at work till 11: Dark: 30 tonight (not sure my feet will take me into Walmart anyway ), but if no one answers the call I can try and check tomorrow.

If Wallyworld doesn't, I can check the dealer tomorrow as well to see if they have one ($$$ though)

Thank you Phox. When I was searching yesterday I noticed most of the big parts houses in the states carried them or could get them a lot more quickly than I could here. All the ones I found were less than $20.

Too bad it can't use a regular threaded gas cap. Those I have found here on island. The diesel caps don't exist out here.

I'll check a couple of places up here cause I've been contemplating getting a locking cap. Now I have a reason to go and buy one.

Thank you BigBlue. I appreciate that.

I have to make a t-shirt now. It will say "I came to Guam and had my diesel cap stolen".

There used to be a big sign at the Naval Air Station there that said "Guam is a four letter word"
Great place for skin diving tho.
