I forgot to put my fuel cap on after fueling........

I agree....Stuff happens

The Bigger anf better question is WHY doesn't the DOT,Police etc Understand Mistakes are Humane??

If a Cop sees Diesel Fuel Spillling out at highway speeds, Why does it turn out to be a Spectacular Situation including Fines and Penalties??

it Was a Mistake..


The RIGHT way to Handle it is to pull the truck over..And simply tell the Driver He forgot to Put his Cap on...And Go about his day..

Since when is Making a 'mistake' have to corruptly cost a person earnings? No wonder why we Have Angry Civilians going around Shooting Police...

 

If that is the worst thing that happens to you this week, it will have been a good week.
I have done that several times. Just an honest mistake. Use it as a lesson to double-check everything / everytime.

 

Did it rain a lot while you were driving with the cap off? Just wondering what kind of problems could have happened if water had gotten in the fuel tank...
Hey, I bet you will be more attentive next time you fuel, right?

 

maybe u did put the caps back on and someone was steeling ur fuel....that what i think when i see my caps off....

 

Nope. You're ok.

 

I've done that.Just make sure all the fuel around the tank is cleaned off so it doesn't give dot a reason to do a level 1.

 

why don't cha post asking how to screw it back on?? you will get 467 different answers and even the torques specs.

 

I wouldn't put anything else in there.... This was a teaching/learning experience... We learn new things every single day...
