Well, it is only $18. Maybe I'll get one and see. It does not lock. Not sure I have the ability to modify it. I can use my old farmer's ingenuity I guess. Or maybe one of you that have more skill and the tools could try it.

No lock on my tank either, if someone wants to take a chance to steal my one gallon of gas and get a kiss of the ball peen hammer, they've got balls. Smiley

Well it is too long, but that's not what she said.

That's a float on it so a clear tube won't replace that. You can get 7" long ones.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-1-4-x-7-ARCTIC-CAT-KELCH-GAS-CAP-GAUGE-7-INCH-FITS-...  Here's one from e-bay. 7" is about right (that's what she said) for the 2012 S-40 anyway. Who wants to try this one?

Does the cap fit the stock tank?

Wish I knew. Not sure what they mean by 2 1/4".  I think it may have to be the 8" one. That's what I measured my tank from the bottom to the top of the fill. You can look at the bottom of the cap in this one. From what I can see I don't think it does. http://www.ebay.com/itm/ARCTIC-CAT-KELCH-GAS-CAP-GAUGE-8-INCH-FITS-MANY-/2907...

You could maybe take a gas cap that doesn't lock and take everything from the Kelch and somehow fit it to a gas cap that does fit our bike.

Still doesn't look like those caps would work to me.

I think someone mentioned previously (or maybe in another thread) that a while ago someone had found a replacement gas cap that was the screw type. Whoever said it couldn't remember who found it or what it was called. However, if we could find it again maybe it could be married up to one of these....

Just throwing ideas out there.

It looks to me like you would need to add a short neck above the fill to be able to put one of these on. In that case you would need one about 9" long. Maybe this one. http://www.ebay.com/itm/290611225560
or this one http://www.amazon.com/Kelch-54-1810-Gauge-Snowmobile-Gas/dp/B002SA0S3E    Either that or find that screw in gas cap and put them both together somehow.

I'm leaving this idea to whoever wants to work on it. Good Luck.
