Fule Filler Cap Retainer

The IVA rules say that if the key used to unlock the fuel filler is not the ignition key, then the cap must have a retaining device connecting it to the filler to discourage driving off with it open presumably.

 

The simplest way of doing this is to tie it on with some brass wire and then crimp a ferrule in place to hold it. In my case this is a short piece of copped brake pipe squashed in a vice.

 

It will do the job to get through IVA and then be promptly removed to avoid the risk of lumps of copper falling off and blocking a fuel line
