ABSTRACT:
A snap together fuel cap wherein a closure member is maintained between a cover portion and a skirt portion. The cover and skirt portions are secured together through cooperating axially facing surfaces formed on locking tab members. The tabs on the skirt have a predetermined width which is slightly less than the distance between adjacent protruding surfaces formed on the cover such that after assembly, the end walls on the skirt tabs will engage the edges of the protruding surfaces to limit relative rotation between the cover portion and the skirt portion.
