ABSTRACT:
A lockable gas tank cap device comprises a cover hingedly affixed to a vehicle in the area of the open end of a gasoline tank of the vehicle in a manner whereby it covers the open end in a closed position and is free from the open end in an open position. A spring-biased pin is biased by a spring and slidably mounted on the vehicle in proximity with the cover for locking the cover in closed position under the force of the spring. A cable is affixed to the pin and extends into the vehicle for moving the pin against the force of the spring to release the cover for movement to its open position.
