Greetings all, with all this great weather in Savannah, GA I've been
itchin to go fishin. One problem, I can't get any freakin gas in the
boat. I have a Perko locking gas cap and the inner mechanism spins
freely no matter which way I turn the key. How do I get the cap off? I
thought of drilling it but I'm worried about getting debris in the
tank. Any suggestions???

Thanks,
John

You may have to replace the assembly. Remove the filler assy and get a new
one, or drill the cap with it off the boat.
